Dishonorable Fate!
There is that which exists
That you want nothing to do with.
Should your reason abandon you,
The Siren's song of adventure
Call and lure and capture you,
You will curse yourself afterward,
That you did not heed words
Echoed in legend and verse.
Some have experience of it,
They know of what I speak.
Their nightmares expose it,
Inside their soul's weep.
Others know naught of it -
And they are those who seek,
Without knowing thought of it,
Ignorance shatters their deeds!
Warning!
They sought fortunes and fame
and songs sung in their names
(if stories be fortunes
and fame be fables
if restless ears attune
over half empty tables
to muted tones
and whispered frowns
of empty homes
and mourning towns
a weaping moon
dressed in sables
o’er looks
empty stables)
what was sought was found
Tales with their names abound!
Come!
Hapless to fortune
Heedless to fame
Others will come
Plying their trade
Busts in marble
Faces in granite
Deeds in tapestry
Kings can grant it
Hope!
Across the land on gallant steed
Over the sea in galleons with mead
They came one, by two, by three
Astride waves of destiny
With fiery hearts and battle numb
Fate picked them, they the chosen
Refugees! Refugees!
Pretty Elves and Dirty Dwarves
Little Gnomes and Human Soldiers
Refugees! Refugees!
In capes and sashes
In wishes and dashes
of hope
of gain
In prosperous thought
An altogether lively lot
Refugees! Refugees!
Warriors with blades
Mages with fire
Hunters with feigns
Preists with desire
Refugees! Refugees!
Deeds sung by minstrels
who alight light fingers
upon taught strings
Will harp their happenings
Refugees! Refugees!
Rogues with stealth
Druids with health
Warlocks with friends
Paladins with amends!
Refugees! Refugees!
Destiny!
These are your people
Now is the time!
Your destiny is steeped
With them you entwine
Your Life you should savor
There is no guarantee!
Run with divine favor
Live with your destiny!
If you walk with honor
You die with dignity!
Now is the time!
Now, Refugee!

Fantastic! You are the man!
When life hands you lemons, kick life in the face and say, "Thank you, but I prefer mangos."
