Guidelines on the Other Index page. ] Untitled By Lukita Ravenwing A wrong word spoken A wall raised Heated words volley More left unsaid Too entrenched in ideas Too hurt to see Something was lost Nothing gained Ask the question "Why?" As we walk the beaten path Again. Meaning long forgotten A battle fought in vain Wood to a fire A breeze and a tree The trickster shows his hand And we realized Too late There are mazoku in this land.   back
