I thought (after I replied in my own thread) that it might be nice to see a thread devoted to the non-EQ or EQ related shorts that people might have, whatever medium they're in.
So here you go...the short EQ summary in poetry form.
There is no smile
There is no laugh
All has gone these ages past
Swallowed in liquid dross
Emotions bled
What price the cost?
Fire for a lover
A shot for a friend
When now might this bitter end
A single stroke
A blade cuts deep
A falling face to eternal sleep
A man stands tall
Emotions won
A white knight wins by rote of gun
So there you go, everyone is welcome to join in and fill the thread with EQ and Non-EQ creations!

The moon rides high
A sign is turned
Towards the heavens' darkly burned
A woman runs
For her life
Ahead of villain with brandished knife
A shadow follows
A sliver of black
To land now at villain's back
Come wailing sirens
Come men and guns
The shadow fades, his work is done
The woman safe
The villain flat
Gibbers now of man like bat

Last one for now:
I run on four
I fly on two
I hunt the night under palest moon
My teeth are sharp
My thirst is great
My hunger I can satiate
With your red wine
Flows ere from wound
I lap the source of life from you
My heart beats again
My skin grows warm
But I fear the coming of the dawn
Asleep then I
And go from thee
My kiss will leave you in thrall to me

Excellent work Wolf...you'll have to rename this thread Poet's Corner at this rate. It never ceases to amaze me just how many gifted members there are among us.

FALLING GRACE
An ochre sky breaks in shattered dreams
A whimpered cry calls to Heaven's bright
A shifting whisper cries to endless night
A falling star to Earth's bosom screams
A dark time comes for all below
As fallen one wakes from cracking stone
A birth-cry rent into midnight air
Wings flap like heart beats as they find him there
He the one they call the Morning Star
Lucifer the angel no more thou are
Cast from God's sight into mortal realm
Make thy own kingdom and call it Hell
Bring man to ruin by wicked words
Cast seeds of doubt upon crow-black birds
Cover all that's wrought in darker thought
What price is freedom for a soul that's bought?

Ohhhh...nice. Very dark.
Love this verse ;D
Bring man to ruin by wicked words
Cast seeds of doubt upon crow-black birds
Cover all that's wrought in darker thought
What price is freedom for a soul that's bought?

Not exactly poetry, but an "EQ-related short" definitely:
Newly discovered--Lost Prank Outtake from EQ!
Scene 42: Preston’s New Partner
-Robbie-
Your new partner called. He says he'll pick you up at 10:00 for the A.N.R. I hope you don't mind. I took the liberty of telling him you would be at Equilibrium, replacing your dose …
-Preston-
No, of course not. That was the right thing to do.
*view of Equilibrium Centre*
*Announcements over the PA system:*
“Due to terrorist activity, this site is temporarily closed. Proceed to the Equilibrium Centre in Sector 8A. Due to terrorist activity, this site is temporarily closed.”
*Zoom to view of PRESTON in front of EQ Centre*
-Man-
This site is temporarily closed. Proceed to the Equilibrium Centre in Sector 8A.
*PRESTON turns … door of Cleric Cadillac opens*
-Swedish Chef-
Moooor den-a hurgy-berg Kloorik! Hoppa oon.
*PRESTON gets in*
-Swedish Chef-
Hoowurde det looinse? Emma snaet wuffa blort to-gaedda yoora wunterval un gedda-ootser kervickerlee bork.
-Preston-
No, they're ... they're fine today.
-Swedish Chef-
Mebba emma droopa-bee erlaeder enna goota-em wunterval adyuustedt.
*SWEDISH CHEF picks up frying pan meaningfully*
-Preston-
You expecting chickens? I mean Resistance?
-Swedish Chef-
Detta-aer sooma-tink yu ganna bursty-wursty Kloorik. Emma wunt blaeret poorson, gooshus burly hurrka. Ooolwise yekka-spork de knockwoorst bork bork bork!!
*Cleric Cadillac pulls away as SWEDISH CHEF starts brandishing frying pan and shouting indistinctly*
*Pan away to: two Muppet Resistance Chickens looking on--one looks at the other and shakes head slowly*

A little racy couture adventure for you ...
Father Investigates!1. Prompted by rumours of Sense-Offence in the Seattle Penthouse Suite of Evil Genius Incorporated, Father undertakes a personal enquiry into the matter.  What better outfit for street action than this? Lambskin pants by Vakko, boots by Enzo Angiolini, jacket by Wilda for JL. 2. Evidence ... someone has been logging in to the EQ Website!  Intelligence and sexiness combo: Spaghetti-strap top by Evie for Evie Collection, and laptop by Compaq.3. No ... not without incident! Go Cleric on someone's ass in Calvin Klein's leather trenchcoat, with personal protection by the Cleric's friend, Beretta SpA.

You two are certifiable! ;D
It's comforting to know there's still some craziness in the world that's just pure.
I've been with my man for 30 years and we're still as bonkers as we were when we first met...
To quote my favourite Vulcan
'Live long and prosper.'
