//------------------------------// // V // Story: In Memoriam R.D. // by Bulbasaur //------------------------------// Inept and inexact are words, Which, all throughout my life have been My servant, I their master, when I needed something to be heard Or written. I have come to see That flaky are these treasured things. See, hollow sound around me rings: Though I speak words to them; they, me; I cannot process sounds, extract Their meaning, speak, or comprehend. Alas, my former stalwart friend Has broken down our precious pact. Through words my world was torn apart, However; yea, through words was I Inform'd my Rainbow Dash did die: O pow'rful, terr'ble, wretched art! At last, words can be wolves in sheep's Skin; power, surely they possess. Sometimes they help; sometimes, distress: For now, words fail me, and I weep.
