"Pheonix Lock" by Juvela Obi

I had this dream a while ago... It involved a place called Haven, surrounded by an empathic force shield. Kids who are hunted for possessing a misunderstood form of magic can get through because they meet the emotional requirements, average people who don't meet the requirements effectively hit an invisible and impassible wall, and evil men who hunt said children die on contact with the shield.

And this is a bardic song I wrote describing it.

←- Loudest in the Silence | Sword Singers -→

Built with fire of heart

And silence of mouth

To remain safe within

And keep dark men out

 

Unrivaled in power

Of magical means

Unbroken by strength

Of the greatest of fiends

 

No man shall go

Where he does not belong

No army may pass

If one thousand strong

 

The child knows

What adults can't imagine

The knowledge you have

Is only distraction

 

Wanting with plea

Does not let you gain

Finding the key

Is only through pain

 

The most beautiful key

Is a frightful thing

The only way in

Is a phoenix wing

i really like this its nice and empowering to women or at least thats what i think i could be wrong


:-) Juvela Obi replies: "Well, it was more geared for child abuse victims. When I was little, I had this whole world inside my own mind where I could go to escape. I guess the theory behind Haven was that only people who really needed that kind of safe place could find and enter it."
