Howling Mad Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Welcome to the twelth installment of this wonderful thread full of creative genius!Here we want to appreciate the greatness that is the Song of Ice and Fire, by creating rhymes about everything that deserves to be immortalized in a song. Brave fights, eventful weddings, loved characters and everything in between.Just some advice – please do not use derogatory terms to describe characters. Oh, and one more thing, everything you write should be based on the story, or at least on widely accepted speculation, like R+L=J for example. GRRM does not like fanfiction, so we will NOT write any!Where we have been:Version 11Version 10Version 9Version 8Version 7Version 6Version 5Version 4Version 3Version 2Version 1The topic before 1My original post from Version 1:Gendry hammer hammer forging awayHot Pie, Hot Pie two and twenty black birds baked like clayOde to the Faceless Men, Jaqen says "not today" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job :bowdown: And because it has to be said in every. damn. thread:WHAT IS DEAD MAY NEVER DIE! :commie:And now, a song: /To A Brother, Arya to Jon :wub: (no shipping goat dammit!)And you said, "I'll give you somethingYou don't want to lose"I said, "Brother, I'll give you everything I gotIt's you I'm to choose"Then I got on a horse and flewFar away from youThough unwillingly I leftAnd it was so, so hard to doThe streets there at home had rapidly filled upWith the whitest of snowAnd they don't make no excuse for themselvesAnd there's no need, I knowNow I miss you more than I can takeAnd I will surely breakAnd every morning that I wakeGods, it's the sameThere's nothing more to itI just get through itOh, there's nothing more to itI just get through itIt always takes me by surpriseHow dark it gets this time of the yearAnd how apparent it all becomesThat you're not close, not even nearNo matter how many times I tell myselfI have to be sincereI have a hard time standing upAnd facing these fearsBut Dad put it best when he said"The pack must be the heart"Those words keep me on my feetWhen I think I might just fall apartNow I miss you more than I can takeAnd I will surely breakAnd every morning that I wakeGod, it's the sameThere's nothing more to it,I just get through itOh, there's nothing more to itI just get through itOh, there's nothing more to itI just get through itAnd so I ask where are you nowJust when I needed youI won't ask againBecause I know there's nothing we can doNot now, brother, you know it's true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fragile Bird Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I can't believe it took me 2 whole days to contribute a poem! This was effort number one.All right, my humble effort, with deepest apologies to Keats.Oh what can ail the Knight at armsRiding through the war scarred landsThe crops were burned the lambs lay deadAnd no birds sing.Oh what can ail the Knight in whiteHeart ached with thoughts of broken loveHis golden hair touched now with grayLove's ice within.He met a lady long agoHis sister true to tell the taleHer golden hair, her emerald eyesLa belle dame sans merci.Oh what can ail the imp who roamsAcross the lands and seas so farHis scarred face hides him not from harmA dragon calls.Oh what can ail the imp so smallWho's heart now grows so hard aloneHe seeks revenge for hurts and liesNo love for him.He met a lady long agoHis sister true to tell the taleHer shining eyes glowed in fire's lightLa belle dame sans merci.Oh what can ail the stranger's heartThe one who comes to see her soonSo long ago a witches wordsNamed him full true.Oh what can make the stranger's handsTo wrap around the sweetest throatTo end the pain of aching heartsOf two men true.He'll meet a lady very soonFull beautiful a golden childHe'll be the valonqar she fearsLa belle dame sans merci.And this is why the Knight at armsHis brother imp so far awayThey wake at night so cold and paleAnd no birds sing.

Little Miss Sunshine Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 My first wholesome poem everRed Wedding - Edmure's POV My King and my Uncle say"For your mistakes you must pay.It's arranged, marry Roslin Frey,Lord Walder must now have his way."My opinion, they did not seekWas my bride fair and sleek?Or homely and lacking teeth?I didn't know, still they made me goTime was not for me to be weak.On arrival, I'd never believe!Roslyn was comely, what a relief!And yet she wept, I didn't know whyFor now I'd love her 'til the day I died.The wedding took place, the feast proceededI felt now happy, got all that I neededThose awful songs? That poorly meal?Didn't care much, did my part of the deal. It was time for the bedding, how I longed for itNaked in the chamber, with all candles litRoslyn was there, and oh, what a sight!Drowned in happiness! Yet, oblivious, and blind....When all was done, I got my wishA lovely wife, and no floppy fish!But soon I found out 'twas nothing but liesBeneath this chamber, my King, Robb, dies.Despite the salt and the bread,Thousands perished that night,No offense goes past the FreysNot even under Guest Right.And now they hold me captive,A hostage by seed and by chains,No king, no sister, no army,Nothing else remains... And my most acclaimed one, IIRC:The Freys - Slay our Guest!(to Beauty and the Beast's"Be Our Guest")Walder Frey:My lords, King in the North, it is with deepest prideand mayhaps pleasure that we welcome you tonight!And now we invite you to relax, let's put down your swordas all Freys in the room proudly presents - you betrayal! The Freys:Slay our guest! Slay our guest!Put our treason to the test!Tie your direwolf outside, my lordAnd we will provide the rest!Soup du jour - hot king's blood!Why, you slighted us to mud!Try the vengeanceIt's amazingDon't believe us? Ask Lord Tywin!We can undo what we sworeAfter all, m'lord, this is war!And we're tired of being less than second best!Go on, take salt and breadSoon you'll all be worse than deadSlay our GuestSlay our GuestSlay our Guest!!!First some arrowsThen a stabA greatsword right through your heartAll your army burns outsideYou should have never changed your bride!Cat's aloneAnd she's scaredBut the butchery's all preparedNo Frey's gloomy or complainingWhile the singers are entertaining!We know it's time when we hearGood ol' Rains of Castamere!The Red Wedding's going forthThat is no jest!Come on, Freys, lift your glassWe won't let this slight passLet's slay our guest!If you're stressedEternal sleep's what we suggest!Slay our guestSlay our guestSlay our guest!Walder Frey:Life is so frustratingFor a vassal always servingWe need someone who puts us on higher statusAh, back in the days you thought we're usefulSuddenly all your promises are goneSo many years I've been ignoredBeing mocked by other lordsI need alliances, a chance to marry off my prole!One day you come with your King's wordYou seemed quite right on trackAnd then you stab us in the back!Black Walder:He's a guest! He's a guest!And his uncle we'll arrest!Freys are ready, so is RooseCold revenge on its best!I faintly hear Catelyn's pleaIt's such a lovely sound to me!While the bards are badly playingI'll be stabbing, I'll be killing!Outside's chaos, smokin' hotSeven Hells, oh what a plot!Keep on going! We want Lord Tywin impressed!We've got a lot to do!And murder Greywind, tooLet's slay our guest!Slay our guest!Slay our guest!Slay our guest!The Freys:Slay our guest! Slay our guest!Anything King Joff requestsIt's been years since we've got some respectAnd we're obsessedWith your folly, with your slightWe'll even break the damned Guest RightWhile the bedding is still goingA true bloodbath will be flowingLord by lord, one by one'Til Walder shouts "They've all been done!"Then we'll sew your wolf's head in your still-warm bodyTonight we'll end your causeAnd we'll break all the lawsTo slay our guest!Slay our guest!Slay our guest!Gods, let's slay our guest!

deleted01 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 , yet another First Aid Kit song. Well the pale morning sings of forgotten thingsI play a tune for those who wish to overlookThe fact that they've been blindly deceivedBy those who preach and rule and teachBut I fall short and the night explodes in laughterDon't you come here and say I didn't warn youAbout the way your world can alterAnd oh how you try to command it all stillEvery single time it all shifts one way or the otherAnd I'm a goddamn coward, but then again so are youAnd the lion's roar, the lion's roarHas me running and hollering for youAnd I never really knew what to do Well I guess sometimes I wish you were aLittle more predictableThat I could read you just like a bookBut now I can only guess what's coming nextBy examining your hidden smileAnd the ways of the old, cold winds blowing you back 'roundAnd I'm a goddamn coward, but then again so are youAnd the lion's roar, the lion's roarHas me writing and hollering for youI love you, I love you, I love youSometimes I wish I could sit atop Aegon's HillI'd sit there and look at the deserted town and I'd singAnd every once in a while I'd sing a song for youThat would rise above the mountains and the stars and the seaAnd if I wanted it to, it would lead you back to meAnd the lion's roar, the lion's roarIs something that I have heard beforeA children's tale, the lonesome wailOf a lion's roar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Night Full of Ninjas Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Welcome kissedbyfire! So good to have you here. And your ryhme is just fine!One I jotted down. It feels so scattered and incomplete, but I dunno what else to add :-/Burning, burning, burningAll of Winterfell is BurningOur good Lord Eddard has lost his headAnd Ironborn have taken his placeNow both of our sweet princes are deadThe Iron scum has flayed their facesBurning, burning, burningAll of Winterfell is burningWhere towers stood and children playedAll that remains are ruinsThe bannermen came, but then betrayedAnd killed everyone within Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
