NOTE: Starfish the story, is originally finished, this is just a poem to add on to it.
From the author (moi): This is actually just an excuse to post really. The poem wasn't especially meant for posting here, but since it has to do with starfishes and all, I thought I'd just post it ) It technically has no GD/GDS characters, just a plain free verse poem. And it's called "Tidal Act" ) Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't have to do a disclaimer this time cuz I did write the poem, but since it is on fanfiction as a GD/GDS fic, I'll disclaim for the story itself. I don't own GD/GDS from the previous chapter, the real story. )
AND... for those dashes (-) in the typings, it's because it won't have a space to show the stanza's (or are stanza's for songs only...?), so I put them there to be able to space. )
Tidal Act
Within one day's time,
The moon descends and climbs.
-
At dusk it towers,
The shoreline it devours.
At dawn it lowers,
As the callousness slowers.
-
In those long dark nights,
Will the wrong doings be slight?
Does the dark side actually seem,
As guiltless as its mask tries to deem?
-
No, not after the sunset eve,
As everyone near, has taken their leave.
-
Waves' natural murky roar,
Sends numerous starfishes up ashore.
One sweep of its aqua sleeve,
Starfishes depart from their homes which have deceived.
Now up along the sandy shore,
-
As sunlight starts to pour.
When the new day begins,
Light of just will shine on its sins,
What has the short era done,
Now that the beach has starfishes of tons?
-
Yes, a deathly sin it is,
All the lives that are dismissed.
It was precisely in the afternoon,
Shown, the effects of the long forbidden moon
All this doing, all from greed,
A touch of nature's mislead.
-
Her power attempts to attain a grasp,
Only to receive a strangled gasp.
All those corpses that line the sand,
How would one's eyes not expand?
Author's notes: C'est la fin de mon histoire! (It is the end of my story!) Actually, it was the end before... this came from my anthology project...
Currently, I'm thinking of a Meer story. Pro on her part, not mockery or put down; showing Meer's life before becoming 'Lacus Clyne.' I've gotten part of the planning, but not really into detail.
Please drop a review - and if have time, comment about the Meer story ) Thx for reading.
