At first glance I thought that cats ear was the nose of some red head sleeping sitting up. :laugh: As soon as my eyes focused I could see enough to think it was a fuzzy puppets head. Now that the blur from the changes in my eyesight has settled and focus is good. I see a kitty on some clothes. :cool:

The PuddyTat, Ginger, died peacefully but she is still with me, in a special way. She helped change me in a good way, in a way that surprised me, because we bonded deeply. She will always be with me, and I will always will be with her, in a very special way. :yes: :smile: :yes: :smile: :yes:

DC Madness: Four
Zero 1.1(1){5}

 

Sarah Lyons set out at once to get the valuable contents, of the time capsule, along with the time capsule itself, to the DC Citadel.

 

Even as she did so a great behemoth supermutant strode across the land, peaceful and profoundly influential, followed by a mass of followers of many kinds, some of them of surprising nature.

 

The Vault Wanderer left TekVault0101 in a hurry, being persecuted by the Overseer Government there, but was soon drifting towards the large crater based settlement of Megaton. As she did so she avoided raiding groups of wild supermutants but these were from TekVault0083 and unlike those attacking the Troopers of Steel, in the Centropolis National Mall.

 

The Mysterious Stranger showed up to deal with escaped Gary Clones, criminally insane and sociopathic murderers, and killed the group of 15 of the vault jumpsuit wearing 'Killer Garys', as Wastelanders had come to call them. The odd man, dressed like an American private detective from a 1940s movie, destroyed the evidence of the massacre before setting out once more to track down the TekVault that they came from.

 

Enclaven eyebots floated through the air of the Wastelands, sent by approaching Enclaven Forces. While some were noisy, sprouting bizarre propaganda, others were silent and more sneaky; these last were spying out the area for the coming invaders.

 

Reavers, and Ragers, were joined by new types of Raiders in Centropolis; these were Ravers and Rippers. Specialising in dealing with exotic threats, the DC-Regulators found themselves being stretched to deal with the increasing numbers of Raiders along with supermutants, Killer Garys and other extreme problems.

 

The AntAgoniser first showed up close to the large settlement of Canterbury Commons but caused no disturbance.

 

The DC-Syndicates were growing bolder, more damaging, in their criminal activities. To deal with them was officially created the DC-Marshals who supplemented the DC-Sheriffs to be found in many settlements.

 

Life continued on as normal, that is normal in DC terms, with psykers, rad-creatures, rogue robots, escapee androids, bandits, gangers, lots of ghouls and other aspects of survival driven existence.

DC Madness: Five
One 4.1(5){6}

 

JackOman, of the DC-Regulators, crouched in his dust jacket outfit and aimed his powerful scan-binoculars at the fast moving Steel Troopers hover vehicles. They were no threat, far from it, to Centropolis settlers or those like the peaceful ghoul like rhouls or to the tribal seminomads or others that caused less troubles. They were a powerful new faction that was needed to help counter against the supermutants, raiders and Enclaven butchers.

 

For such machines to move so quickly, so openly, in the Wastelands indicated that they were in a great hurry to get somewhere; in this case it was to the DC-Citadel that was once the biggest, heaviest, of the DC's military citadels. Yet the convoy, of five machines, would first halt at the Order of Steel Outpost of Fort Metallica. The name had come from some historically obscure musical band that had something to do with 'strong metal', hence the choosing of it as the name of the outpost.

 

Around him were other elite DC-Regulators of Team DCRA1. Like him they wore dusters and like him they were heavily armed but most often with the same kind of heavy, rugged, autorifle complete with a grenadeshell launcher. One had an arrow missile launcher and another had a spin-shotgun with six barrels. The radio operator had only a large autopistol and was to be protected by the others as was the medic.

 

Then JackOman shook his head and spoke to the others through helmet the two-way radios. "Clever, very clever, if dangerous. Those machines are a decoy trick. They already have some raiders and Enclaven infiltrators following them."

 

Sammy spoke out, her voice grating thanks to an old injury. "Don't forget a couple of platoons of Talon Mercenaries of the thug-merc variety. Least of the threats."

 

JackOman paused before responding. "The two platoons of thug-mercs, what reports have you had on them? Any briefings?"

 

Sammy responded. "A new one came in from some friendly tribal scouts but I have not had a chance to give it a careful check yet. I am now putting it up on my helmet side screen. Oh damned, the tribal scouts state that the supposed thug-mercs move wrong for mere thug-mercs and their equipment is not all correct. They are fakes moving too quick, too expertly, and might be elite soldiers. Could be Talon Mercenaries of their elites, could be Troopers of Steel, could be Enclaven deep infiltrator soldiers but.... they could be Steel Troopers as you picked up in that way you have of doing."

 

JackOman nodded, to himself as if answering an internal question. "We will go and intercept the fake mercenaries. Sammy, always examine the briefings, even if you have to make it quick."

 

Sammy sighed. "Okay, boss!"

 

JackOman: "Just call me 'JackOman!"

I let go everything from my mind,

become of the 'empty mind'

only to find that I miss all the 'stuff'

that used to fill my mind!

 

There is a fear of being alone

that often drives us to seek

distraction both inside

and from outside

of our minds!

It is ironic

that often what we fear

most

has no real power over us

except that which we give it!

Old reposted episode added to this post along with newly posted episode.

 

Doctor Who!? Escape: Fourteen
One 14.1[15]

 

The new route turned out to be a series of secured tunnels that took the expeditionary group safely through dangerous areas and deep into the Red Zone where the research development complex was to be found. The Doctor, and his companions, were soon joined by a large team of androids and robots sent to assist them, the androids being far less advanced than those of Timelordic make.

 

The Doctor examined the burned remains of what had been a Timelord timespaceship. Some great force had destroyed it but it had most probably been from within, either an act of deliberate sabotage to stop the machine being captured or some kind of enemy sabotage. The robots, and androids, had been waiting close to the more basic type timespaceship that was far less sophisticated, and eccentric, than the DocTARDIS. It was far more of a general transport, a typical workhorse, that served all of the Timelords be they Timeguardians or Timemasters or of other factions or even the factionless. It used to be a Type-3 Timespace Orb!

 

There was no evidence of the Timespace Orb serving any particular faction, so savage had been the damage. Yet the existence of the destroyed machine did not bode well be it of Timeguardian or Timemaster origin.

 

The Doctor examined the great big, dimly lit chamber, that the ruined machine was in and did soon find a rather gruesome clue next to a semiactive city mechanism that was slowly regulating air flow. The energy armoured Timepawn was a Timemaster cloned supersoldier that was actually an intricate cyborg. The figure had been hidden behind the mechanism or would have most likely been taken by a fleeing group. For the same area of the chamber showed energy burn marks, slick oils from what could have been a dalek or a zalek, and even a hole in one wall caused by a shaped explosive charge of some kind.

Doctor Who!? Escape: Fifteen
One 15.1[16]

 

"Drop!" The Doctor cried out as pulses of destructive energy shot through the air and exploded holes in the wall behind them. Daleks came forward, spanning out, even as the Timelord activated his protective energy bubble and fired off his multipistol. A dalek exploded as robots, and androids, fired upon them along with the cyborgs. A cyborg supersoldier died, a second dalek exploded and then the hovering daleks began to withdraw quickly. Daleks were no fools and the dalek patrol quickly realised it was out gunned.

 

The Doctor's warning had helped to save many lives, even perhaps those of daleks. Soon the machine driven monsters were gone. The skirmish had lasted less than a minute. with deaths but no woundings. The Timelord deactivated his energy shield, made his multipistol vanish and went to examine the remains of a dalek with the help of his trusty sonic-screwdriver.

 

What the Timelord found was that it was a fairly advanced version of a dalek but one he suspected was cloned from those of the main faction of Skaro. Through timespace various dalek factions had waged war on one another, sometimes as lethal experiments or proving trials where only the fittest got to survive. The main faction, the Imperial Daleks, had always been the most powerful, often assimilating or destroying smaller dalek factions.

 

Kellite spoke as she grimaced at the site of the smashed dalek mutant creature. "Reports of daleks are common and indicate they are in large numbers along with those that fight them. Damned sociopathic killers are looking for something or so many suspect; they capture and interrogate prisoners, often leaving them for dead. It surprising when any are found alive but they do not often remain so, even with attempts to save them. Perhaps they are seeking the very same research development complex that we are heading towards."

 

The Doctor frowned hard. "From what I gained from the dalek clone databanks, as damaged as they are, that is exactly what they are doing but they are doing so for one they serve that they designate as the Master. If it is the rogue Timelord that I fear it is, then we are facing an evil, cunning, insane monster who is as bad as any of the daleks that serve him."

What kind of poetry would this be called?

I ask because my mind is getting more zombie feeble from lack of cultural refreshment.

It has become clear the living standards don't let the dead and dying visit the halls of those still vying for supremacy, so I ask you to share. Give this student of life a little clemency so I might be spared the task of doing a Google to learn what kind of poetry genre that is.

There is, when I pass along Googles paths, stuff I don't need passing through the thinning paths of my minds vast jelly like brains.

 

So if it please you to be an educator, not a teacher, an educator, I would like to be reminded of what kind of poetry that you structured the words so the fit into one the forges of poets styles.
