For National Poetry Day
A Sort Of Poem
Introduction
Apparently, it's National Poetry Day and Jdey Kalchik wrote this nice little poem.
The music is "Thomas The Rymer" by Steeleye Span which sort of fits the mood, and it is seven minutes of folk brilliance.

Two Wrinkles In Time
It is pointless to run, my darling, because sixty seconds ago, I will kill you. My blade will have sliced reality open right in front of you. It will have first pierced it as it would a bed sheet left hanging to dry, flapping in the wind on a Sunday afternoon. But the metal will have drawn a line in the air that the ghostly tear will have followed. Then I, La Dyablès, machete firmly in hand, will have emerged from what your mind, at the time, could only interpret as the other side of here—whatever that means to you. I know. I have seen that look on the faces of countless unlucky… clients. You will not have been the first nor the last to try and reneg on a riches for soul contract only to present this visage to me when I come to collect.

Don't be gone long, Mike. We don't know what we would do without you. And I agree with those who have commented below. You most certainly are a poet, heart & soul.
