PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"WSC2 (FV) The Cat who would be King"
This is kind of a mix between free verse and rhyming, but I think it is loosly enough structered to be posted in the free verse category.

I have set music to this piece, and recorded it on a live CD, but I wasn't satisfied with my musical composition so I rarely play this song. I do love to quote this to people as an example of my work though.

The Cat who would be King

A deafening roar
A Banshee scream
Escapes timid lips
Startling the Cat who would be King

Displaced wig
and tattered robes
With half mad orbs
Appearance of the Cat who would be King

Transient and vagabond
No true abode
Wandering and lost
Destiny of the Cat who would be King

Destiny revealed
To kill or be killed
To rule it all. or lie still
Choice for the Cat who would be King

Cauldrens of choice
But no choice at all
The wheel keeps on spinning
From the edge he will fall
“Don’t you see?” says the wise man
With a shout and a call
“Just stand in the center and balance won’t stall”
“But to reach here” says he
“A dozen must die, but remain where you’re standing
You’ll forfeit your life.”
Time at last for the Cat who would be King
To sacrifice self and to trust the Supreme.

I find this very amusing, however, it makes me really think of my place in life.

WOW! Great piece, Naked. I really liked this line:

Cauldrens of choice
But no choice at all
The wheel keeps on spinning
From the edge he will fall

Thank you for sharing.

Good work Naked! Thanks for sharing. I am intrigued with the idea of these words as lyrics to a song though....let us know if it ever makes the cut musically!

Hey naked!

I really like this too! I agree it would make a wonderful song, just don't let Britney sing it

Transient and vagabond
No true abode
Wandering and lost
Destiny of the Cat who would be King

Really like this stanza. Nice work!
