What to do. I am so confused.<br />Isolation causing me to be short fused.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Surrounded, yet all alone,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Itching to make a clone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
They say it is for the best</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am so distressed.</div>

If this goes on for much longer<br />I'm a goner</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Saving the old</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At the expense of young gold</div>

How is this the thing needed</div>

It seems conceded</div>

Sitting here<br />
Together with family<br />
All worried about the deaths<br />
Yet to be seen<br />
<br />
Is this all real<br />
Not a bad joke</div>

Seeing them coming for us</div>

In the bushes they yell<br />
Don't<br />
Evacuate</div>

"Shhhhhh," Tim hissed to the male penguin. Dread filled the room, did the Citizen Eaters hear the noise, would they care? After a few moments the penguin stop yelling from being awoken. His ghostly eyes looked past Tim into the bleak darkness of death. His eyes started to fall once again.<br />
<br />
"Stay wake old man," Tim whispered.<br />
<br />
His eyes darting open once again, the penguin started to scan the room. "Who is there?"<br />
<br />
"Can you not see me? I stand before you but a few feet."<br />
<br />
"Are you a ghost?"<br />
<br />
"I am certainly not! Are you blind?"<br />
<br />
"Then why can I not see you?"<br />
<br />
"What can you see."<br />
<br />
"Nothing but the darkness of night."<br />
<br />
"Can you even see your fin?"<br />
<br />
He lifted up his fin and startled back. "What happened to my fin. I cannot see it. What have you done to me?"<br />
<br />
"Did you not know you were blind?"<br />
<br />
"I am not blind, I can plainly see the darkness of the night."<br />
<br />
"What does that mean?"<br />
<br />
"I can see the bed and the walls without color. Just like any night."<br />
<br />
Tim pondered on this strange effect. It must be a spell or drug from the Citizen Eaters. I need to find out more. Does he even know what is going on?<br />

<br />
Here I sit wondering what to do.<br />
Looking at this blank page and nothing to do.<br />
<br />
Wondering if the readers will get mad,<br />
If it remains so sad.<br />
<br />
Or will they praise me for keeping it so clean?<br />
Or will they see me as mean?<br />
<br />
Do they want me to write a story<br />
That takes them to a far way glory?<br />
<br />
Or do they want to stay close to home<br />
Under their blanket dome?<br />
<br />
Snuggled up with a good book<br />
In a private nook?<br />
<br />
So many questions I ask myself to what end,<br />
I do not want to offend.<br />
<br />
Maybe I should wait until the time is right<br />
To write this pose and do it right.<br />
<br />
But if I wait I may do nothing<br />
But with this I have something.<br />
<br />
Please do not judge me too harsh<br />
I may end up in a marsh.<br />
<br />
Those I owe money too are not nice<br />
They may slice and dice<br />
<br />
If I win your heart I may be spared<br />
And my joy aired<br />
<br />
Or I may be making it all up<br />
To fill my cup.<br />
<br />
It is hard to tell<br />
So I got to sell.<br />

Oh look, see that time we were together <br />
It may have been one drop in the bucket<br />
But to me it was more than a feather<br />
Floating about the most valued summit<br />
<br />
I just want you to know how much I care<br />
I will shout my love from the mountains high<br />
Without a care for the amount of air<br />
I will surely beat any other guy<br />
<br />
For I will blow you away with my acts<br />
Your troubles may be a free flowing tree<br />
I am cutting down the tree with an axe<br />
So I can make you ultimately free<br />
<br />
This love as one drop in your love bucket<br />
Causing to overflow and meet the cut <br />

Coming forth from those around us<br />
Counting up the time<br />

Unbelievably wild stories<br />

Look how you sit so tall, high, and mighty<br />
Taunting those as if they are in nighties<br />
Saying Press me, press me<br />
For so that all may see<br />
If you go down I will become flighty<br />

Look at this flashy beauty<br />
Most think she is a cutie<br />
But to me she is fruity<br />
Going about her duty<br />
Acting all fine and snooty<br />
Her harsh voice full and tutti<br />
Then comes the reality<br />
They wish to see her booty<br />

"Looking at Paris in this light makes me wish for the safe times of our youth."<br />
<br />
"But when was the last time you had this much fun?" came a smoke filled voice from behind her.<br />
<br />
Jill glared at her brother's ash covered face. How could he consider this fun. She had just survived from being crushed with the burning beams of the Eiffel Tower. The hairs on her neck had been singed by the heat coming from the molten metal.<br />
<br />
Reaching back she rubbed her neck to ascertain the damage. Her cooler hand touching her neck provided some relief to the pain that she was feeling. She looked around the dry dusty water for some sign of water that she could use. Resigned to her situation she gave up the look.<br />
<br />
She looked back out the opening in the wall, just in time to see the unworldly projectile flying towards them. There was no time to escape, the world was doomed.

<div style="text-align: center;">
Churning through the mud</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Radiated from your mind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Every single thought</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At your beckon call</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Till you are crushed by</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everyone</div>
