I, Cassandra, being safely dead,

I, Cassandra, being safely dead,
have seen the horseman
who ride to wed

I bless the ground,
receive my ashen bone
Down by the sea of Ilium.

Won't see me ride anymore
No thought of running away
Won't see me throughout…

I, a slave, received my labor's pay
I warned you when Priam's price was deed;
It's disingenuous to claim innocence now…

(beginning of a poem, in progress…)

I’ve been able to finish only very few thing in that time and with much difficulty. Better to stab me in the neck than taunt me about this sort of thing.serious as :rip:

  2. @ rfhurleyI know what you mean about the writers block. I have only recently been able to start writing poetry again, but not my stories. I have been blocked since I was 15 and now I’m 44, so for me it has been 29 years. So I totally understand where you are coming from. Don’t give up.Now that a crack in the door has opened for me I am going to keep chipping away at the rusty hinges and maybe a flood will ensue. Take care. *Hugs* :heart:
