The cloak wraps around my face
Magic is all around…
My sword at my waist
My worn boots on the ground
I look left and right
Trying to look for the
People who caused the endless night
Trying to set my soul free
No one here suspicious
At least I think
Nothing in this town but the fishes
The dead fishes in the dried up creek
The men walk around aimlessly
With no wives to go home to
The dogs attack ferociously
They attack the weak…the few
The shops have all closed their curtains
The shoppers never to return
Their wares rust without purchase
Their candles left without burn
I walked along the dirt streets
Wandering this way and that
Even though I followed the creek
I could never find a way out or back
This town has swallowed my reality
Turned it lifeless and unworthy
I long to run and be free
Of the grays and blacks that make up you and me
No portal has opened to let me through
To let me leave this place
The name of the town I once knew
The town once full of splendor and grace
Hixson…
