Do you recall how we lurched from that pub?
Our ale-sopped cigars all smoked down to the nub?
It gets rather hazy. Now I can’t find my knickers.
I recall a burlesque: squid-men dressed up as vicars.

We seem to have forgotten the Advent poem:
The Winds are Wild, the Lacre Deep
The Snarling Stones Arise from Sleep
The Fifth’s Tales may Exalt the Suns
But Never Hope to Halt what Comes

DO you recall how the Hunger began?
I'm sorry, my darling, I don't think I can!
OUT past the High Wilderness and beyond
I fear I've gone Seeking, for of Him I'm fond.
--The Elfin Cannibal
Seven scars, seven chains, a soul too stained for Hell, and seven sainted candles burning at the well.
Gone to Grieve on the 17th day of the 7th month, 1897. Will be Vake-hunting next.

I love all of these. The original lines from Failbetter are my favorite pieces of writing in SSea or FL.

Well, if people are enjoying these...
Do you recall how we sped through that tunnel?
Shot up through the Spiral by pneumatic funnel?
Then! Surface, vast sky, pistons' last gasping hiss:
The Sun's dying light, and that rapturous bliss.
