Hime Themis Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Gentle Persons We are pleased to announce the winners of our prose/poetry contest. We received some excellent and thoughtful submissions and were impressed with the depth of the ideas we received. We had intended to award 3 prizes but the quality of the submissions and inability of the judges to feel one of more real merit than another we are proud to award not three but four awards. The following winners in order only of submission are presented for your reading pleasure. For the Knights Council and all of the Rosular Kingdom Respectfully Dame Hime Themis Boundaries ebb and flow Yet the river remains Trapped, in a web They drown together in their ennui Together, they win And together, none can win The masses silent now Levers of fate held in claws We prescient few, scream and shout Struggle to make meaning in a world with none Lose hope and faith Retreat, regroup, and fight another day And still The Voice remains, a grim cult of shadows The Lady lights our way We lurch forward, in fits and starts To join Her in Her Temple We hold this aim true in our hearts To keep us warm in the long night Prodigal Moon [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"] [/size][/font] Sleepless nights. Endless days. Perpetual peace. Interminable war. All for the value of a few pixels more? Nuclear winter. Rebuilding spring. Boredom assuaged. Stagnation resound. An ally, a comrade, an enemy found? Personalities unleashed. Politics reserved. Borderless nations. Growth unrestrained. Fury and ennui simultaneously feigned. Treaties bind. Friendships loose. Cowards rise. Blocs fall. Each for their own, heed update’s call. A siren of simplicity in so many ways. To all who spend time in this game … That nobody plays. Indian Bob [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"] [/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"] [/size][/font] Stranger than any fiction, sadder than any tragedy, and darker than the most vile of secrets. Deadlier than any foe, seductively divine, yet more destructive than any lie. The Truth chose I. Regent Talryn [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"] [/size][/font] [font="Times New Roman"][size="3"] [/size][/font] Read I of an ancient council, Neutral and wise in their trial, Even so, someday one must fall, Answering Hades' call Out of the Grey Schism, Knights gathered like a prism, A seed was thus planted, A fellowship hence founded A rose black as night, Flowered in the light, Tended by a great Queen solely, Represented by one most lovely Written by Dragonshy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prodigal Moon Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 I am deeply humbled to be recognized in this way. I hope that my offering has, in some small way, helped to honor The Order during this joyous anniversary. I am also deeply amused that poetry + Cybernations seems to lead to an almost inevitable use of the word ennui. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
