The LecturerLike the mother of a friend, she smiled And welcomed our inattentive faces To the world she created daily. Mumbling and fumbling with age she yet had, She dimmed the lights just so And with a great sweeping motion, She opened her little mouth with fury As knowledge poured out into a sea before us Swallowing our pens and paper And subjugating our hands to the tremors of the scribe.The Lecturer

Sonnet of Revision TimeAs I sit here, facing tomes and tomes Of dead trees filled to the brim with dead men, Sunlight smiling at my back for hours,Sonnet of Revision Time

And some lightning haps to strike Through the purpled dulcet night If we happen to take sight, Will we see the same great light?
Shall we mourn the darkness diff’rent Our eyes drinking in the pigment Of the sky at times infrequent For our planes aren’t co-existent?
Weaved in time like window shades Born to ripple in the waves Always looking through the glaze At such different sunny days

Carruthers had half a face. He actually had a whole face, but the bottom half was so magnificently beautiful – perfectly dimpled chin with just a hint of stubble, lean lips curling to reveal straight, white teeth, and skin so creamy you could dip strawberries in it – that everybody just forgot what the top half looked like. His forehead (probably quite charming too, if left to its own devices) faded from memory, his nose lost in the glow of that breathtaking zero-point-five of a visage. Not that it bothered Carruthers especiall
