Hi! Sami, Ryou's Hikari here! This chapter has two poems! The first is an acrostic poem, meaning it spells a word reading the first letter of every line. Just so you know, acrostic poems aren't supposed to rhyme, just so I don't get any reviews going: "Why didn't that rhyme?" It has two poems because they are both short, and I wanted the chapter to be longer. Anyway, read on!
Blood, the rare delicacy I first tasted all those millennia ago in Egypt.
Arrogance, the heart of my pride, my thieving ways.
Killing, the dance of life and death that never has a winner.
Understood, something I am not, nor will ever be.
Royalty, the owners of the treasures I thieved from the tombs.
Anger, my emotion at being dead and having everlasting life.
Is it good? Anyway, here is the second poem for now. It's about the Spirit of the Ring's Hikari, Ryou, or Bakura to us English episode watchers, having a nightmare, and the Spirit tries to soothe him. Read on!
Hush my Hikari.
The nightmare is over now.
I will stop these nightmares somehow.
What happened? What could have been so bad,
To make you cry and scream and fight?
These nightmares are keeping you up all night.
No? You won't tell me? Why not, little one?
Free all those thoughts in your silver-lined head.
Who on Earth could I tell? I am dead!
What! I'm in these nightmares that are keeping you up?
No, no, Hikari, this will not do!
What on Earth do I do in these dreams, to you?
Oh well, I see, in that case I will go.
Farewell my Hikari, my innocent lark.
Farewell as I fade into shadows and dark.
Was that good? I really don't know, I think both of them are pretty bad, but don't worry, the next chapter will be much better, I promise!
