Silent Hill: Dismember The Days
Poem 27: Toluca, A Lake With A History
My past runs deep within dark territory
Under my surface are about fourteen bodies
I sunk a ship in mid November
And it is still a mystery to the people here
The year was 1918, but it hasn't stopped
There have been more that suddenly sink and drop
So walk along lake side and get a good view
Because the next victim just might be you
After the Little Baroness I was destined to be feared
I was in glory and was diabolically revered
I saw the trembles on their faces as they watched the waves
Their thoughts were on the people submerged in sand and decay
If you listen quietly you can hear the dead calling for the living
They beg and plead for a helping hand that no one feels like giving
So walk along lake side and get a good view
Because the next victim just might be you
Even in the fog my screaming face is a visible reflection
I am waiting for you to sit next to me and 'ooh' and 'ah' with affection
No one seems to resist the unsettling beauty I have
They point and smile, but I'll get the last laugh
Lean in closer and you will begin to notice something more
It'll be one of my little secrets that you never knew before
So walk along lake side and see all you can see
Because you're looking at Toluca, the lake with a history
END: POEM TWENTY-SEVEN
Did I do the lake justice? I tried, but the information on the boat was shady. I mentioned the ill people under the water in a more subtle way. I hope this is nice. Let me know if it's otherwise. Hey, I'm also thinking of making just random poetic works that pertain to Silent Hill. They'll enable me to explore multiple points of view on darker and more consternating things. I'm really thinking about it. Anyway, there are more poems in the works (about locations). Please request more. I have the hospital, the school, the amusement park, the hotel, and the orphanage coming up. The apartments are great ideas, but I'm almost afraid they will sound the same. So, my idea for them is to make them from the character's view. (James' view for Blue Creek, Henry's view for Ashfield, and so on). If I am forgetting any character or location, or even ENEMY, let me know! I will be more than happy to create a poem in my spare time (which is a lot because I quit my stupid job and need a new car). lol Give me something to do:P All my friends are stoners and drunkards. They just like to grope and shoplift. Haha… yummy.
Thanks reviewers! Any questions/comments? Ask/tell me!
(If I forget anybody's questions or comments I apologize. I haven't read any reviews for almost a month now. I haven't had the time. I will also be happy to review/refer people's work.)
