With all its cheers from caves, cottages, marble domes and temples,

When now a country honors not classical bards:

Addicted To Starcraft-Favorite Vice

The Tal-Dareem are fighting-mad;
They've realized they've just been had.
Expect soon Zealots and Stalkers,
Immortals and those "cliff walkers".
Zerg Hydralisks are assembling just out of range,
Supported by Roaches, Infestors, Banelings,…
The Mutalisks are hovering beyond our turrets,
Brutalisks are...

Lost Love Deliria - Part 1

Pitted pillow, note of parting... leaving,
