Need to give more than I take
Not to is a big mistake
It leads to longer songs
Give more to right the wrongs
Give more for shorter songs
Need’s a shorter song - rAveNswAn
…Months have passed
Nothing’s changed in town
But everything’s changed for Sir McKann
He’s molted all they knew of him
More animal than gentleman… - rAveNswAn
I was going for a “Dexter” in the Wild Wild West kinda thing.
I’ve got a map that I can’t read
And a compass that points due Wrong - rAveNswAn
For Rook is Hoke and Hoke is Rook
Such as reflected throughout this book - rAveNswAn
…If someone turned on the lights
In this starless pitch-black dream?
Maybe the falling tree in the near-barren wood
But no one will hear you scream…
Ethan Whipp...the birth of evil, sanity's battle lost.
If it need be alchemy, then alchemy it will be. - rAveNswAn
Prescription for Crow’s Disease
Oh, doctor, I’ve identified
The source of the pain
It has a name
Same as my last name
But no, I’m not to blame
And doctor, what do you prescribe?
Can’t take more of this pain
Need a prescription …
A prescription
Help bring me back to sane…
To Ethan Whipp - “‘Caws’ he ain’t good’n-uff!"...from his father, Albert Cornelius Whipp
I love the lightning and thunder of a good brainstorm. - rAveNswAn
Thank you Chaucer!
I like playing cards…the face cards, the histories, the stories and the styles.
…Then, I place imagination on my palate
All it took was just one taste

A scarecrow draped upon crucifix
A crow-cifix…

Bones and marrow
Straight and narrow
Caws if you don't, boy
No tomorrow

I wrote Sentry For A Century a long time ago, about 15 rings ago, and have always liked the story in it. I hope my writing did it justice.
