I'm quite good at updating regularily, wouldn't you
say? Ugh. Ah well. Sorry to say there are no poetic updates to the site
at this time, but the Inspiration
section has been updated. My
inspiration segment, to be exact. Fallon's been exceedingly busy
lately, and hasn't had time to sit down and write. I on the other hand,
have been writing, but it's nothing I feel good enough about to post...
Yet.
A couple very exciting things have happened to me as of
late. First off, I've been offered the part of the Queen of Hearts in a
play being put on by a well known local community theatre. I've been in
one other play at the Lyric Arts, and to go from the very small part I
had in that one to the Queen is confidence inspiring for me. I'm
certainly up to the challenge of acting like a psychopathic queen with
a pension for croquet, and using flamingoes as mallets.
My second thing to mention is much more exciting, on a
much different level. From Thursday the 24th to Thursday the 31st (of
August), I was able to enjoy the company of my love, Michael. He lives
in Pennsylvania, and that week was the first time we'd actually met in
person. We were in contact with eachother via the internet and phone
quite frequently for three years prior to the meeting. I won't bore you
with the many details of the week, but will say that where I doubted
our relationship in the past, I doubt no longer. I've never been
happier in my almost two decades of life, or more content. There's
something about being able to sleep with your arms wrapped around the
one you love that is indescribable...
and I wish the day that I'll be able to do that again comes very soon.
Soulmates do exist. Search for yours - you won't be
dissapointed.

"When I'm Gone" By 3 Doors Down 04-24-03, 8:30 P.M.
Update! Three new poems from myself, and one from Fallon.
Enjoy. 04-15-03, 2:37 A.M.
Correction. Fallon has another poem up now. Peace. 04-14-03, 10:15 P.M.
Right. I'm seventeen minus one day. Yes yes, my birthday
is indeed on tax day. Here, i'll flesh out your idea of the evils of
April fifteenth.
-Titanic sank
-Abe Lincoln died
There. now that day is so much more interesting, isn't it?
That's all I really have to say tonight. The status of the poetry hasn't
changed since last post. Have a pleasant eve.

"Orchids" By Stone Sour 04-12-03, Midnight:40
I apologize for the lack up updates. Wait, no, I don't. I
have no real obligation to this site, since I do this for leisure. Oh
well. I now have more poems up than Fallon, as he decided to re-evaluate
his previous poems. The ones he remains proud of, or changes to his
liking, will appear again, slowly. If you had a favorite that is no
longer there, I am sorry, and
if you e-mail Fallon, he may send you a copy of it. Maybe. At this
point, I wash my hands of it; I only consented to his requests. I'm
tired, and I have to get up at seven tomorrow so I can get to my
roleplay group on time. 'Night (or morning).
If you think I'm even awake enough to
think up a song of the day... you've got another thing coming ("another thing coming"... What a
stupid saying..)

...I have added a new
poem, called Eternal Love. Don't worry, the skies are not about to come
crashing down upon you because of my sudden resurgence of activity
around here. I simply found time, and had a brief flash of inspiration
and ran with it... Huzzah for me. In actuality, the poem stemmed from
something of Fallon's that I read, but it has little to do with that
original spark, other than a variation of a key phrase. Heh, thanks
Fallon. And mind you, I did ask him if I could take it and run
with it, so everything's squared away.

"Lies" By Evanescence

I'd like to go on
record saying that I am indeed insane. Now, with that out of the way,
I'll say something else. My brother, Fallon, is genuinely happy for the
first time in a long time. To loosely quote him: "I have a girlfriend
that loves me for me, I've never been more sure of my faith, my family
loves me..." and so on. In other words, he's happy, which makes me
happy, since I won't have to deal with a dark and depressed Fallon for
the time being. Praise the Powers that be. As for myself, Michael and I
are getting along quite well.
...Alright, enough of
my babble. I have school tommorrow, and really should get some sleep. To
each his own, in Love and in Light. Song of the Day: "Goddess

Yesterday, I had the
urge to update RPInc. I have a theory that it was the thought of
Valentine's Day that brought the urge about... But on to other things.
Nothing new has been added as of this post; I am only validating that
this site has not been abandoned. I've had many other sites, and
stopped working on all but this one long, long ago. I checked the hit
counter a few days ago, and I've also noticed that someone seems to be
using a mac to get here... That makes me terribly curious. Not
that I have anything against macs, it's just that the majority of people
that I know who have access to this site are non-mac users... Oh well.
Let it be known that I
am a lover of role-playing, if it wasn't known already. Fallon is the
same way, and we, along with others have been text-based role-playing
for well over two years now, at least for myself. Just recently,
Fallon and I rolled up our very first Dungeons and Dragons
characters, and might I say that despite feeling as if I was
fullfilling a "geekly" role with starting my journey into the world of
D&D, i've found that not only is the game fun and full of strategy,
it is not just a repetetive dungeon crawl where all you do is
kill, kill, kill. If any of you have been "turned off" by our playing
D&D, and now think of us as geeks, please do turn around and leave,
and don't mind the feet kicking you in the ass as you walk out.

...And I'll just add this quickly...
Daredevil is one of the best movies I have seen since X-Men and both
the Lord of the Rings, Fellowship of the Ring, and the Two Towers.

...Do not ask. It's
better that you just be happy that this was updated. Fallon has multiple
new poems, whereas I personally have only added one. I've also two
short stories posted, to Fallon's one. Enjoy.

Alright, one more day of
school left. Funny, it never really seems like it's been that long when
the time comes. Oh well, when it's over, it's over. I have a little side
bonus to look forward to this year as well, beside just being out of
school for three months. I knew joining choir and drama would pay off.
Both departments have been invited to perform at this year's
graduation. It's nice to know that people really do appreciate drama
and choir- and like what we do enough to let us perform at an
important event. Both choir and drama were at the Mall of America
too, to perform at the annual charter school "talent show" thing. It
helps to keep in mind that my school has only had choir and drama for
two years now. We're still far from perfect, but we've come a long way
in a short time to catch up to other charter schools
But hey, what do you
really care, eh? I'll stop babbling now. Fallon has a new e-mail
address, and you can find it on the "Contact Us" page. Song of the Day:

"One Month Later..."
Site
revamped and updated. All poetry that I was able to find posted. Short
Stories section up and running. You'll find that that section is
mostly for my benefit, since I can't always fit my thoughts into poem
format. Four days of school left, then relative freedom.
+++UPCOMING CHANGES+++
-Inspiration page will be changing soon
-Many, many poems will be put up
-More short stories will appear
-Perhaps a guestbook for the site? Song of the Day: "Speechless"

...Uhhhh.... Whoa, I
have a website? I'd forgotten. Dude.
Actually no I didnt
forget. I... neglected my website-maker duties. Mostly because FALLON
thought it would be a good idea to make my computer go haywire. and
the sad thing? I would have been able to reverse the damage, IF my
little brother (6 year old) wouldn't have TURNED THE COMPUTER OFF,
making the changes final. *Spade sighs* Oh well. I'm over it now. I
apoligize to any who have come back multiple times during my forced
hiatus to check for new poetry. I've been busy becoming 16, so I've
nothing new, but there are many new ones from Fallon being posted as
I finish converting and editing them. *spade bows out* I have more work
to do. Good eve. Song of the Day:
"I Stand Alone" By Godsmack
02-7-02
Egh.
I know, i've been gone
for awhile. You see, first semester at my school ended not too long ago,
and I was waiting for my grades to arrive in the mail. I can get really
agitated about that. The thought of having horrid grades and having no
choice but to show them to my parents scares the hell out of me. So, I
am sorry, but I was preoccupied.
Fallon has many, many
poems up as of the moment I write this. He's making me look bad. Really
though, I go for quality, not quantity.(Not saying that Fallon doesn't
do quality work. He just does it... faster.) Anyway, please read them
and enjoy them, and return another day to see if there are more from
either of us. We're putting the poetry up so you can see it, after all. Song of the Day:

**Fallon steps out of the shadows, hood
over head, eyes peering out** "Hello my people, and welcome again to
Romantic Poets Inc. More than half of my surviving poetry is up. Enjoy
it. My more honest inspiration page is now up also... Well, I'm not much
for addressing a crowd, I just figured i'd let you all know that yes I
live. so good bye, good luck, and never give up..."

MUH HA HA HA HA HA HA!
MY PLAN IS COMING INTO FOCUS! Soon, oh so very soon I shall rule the
world! And then I--
*Spade stops suddenly and looks around at
the people that are staring at her*
...Sorry. I was
practicing my speech. It's all part of my plan to take over the world
someday. hey, i'm still young, it can happen.
And if you tell me it
can't Well, i'll kill you.
*Spade smiles innocently*
Ah yes... If you haven't
been able to tell yet, i'm in a rather good mood. Hmm, let's see... I
updated the inspiration page, and
double-checked the workings of the rest of the site, just to make sure
everything ran smoothly. In case you are wondering, the lack of a
colorful background, many graphics, etc., is so that the pages load
quickly and easily. I've never liked sites with lots of shite on
them, anyway. HOWEVER, we may be getting some custom link buttons
sometime in the near-ish future. ...As if you cared in the first place.
Oh well. Signing off for
the night, see ya. Song of the Day:
"Crawling in the Dark", by Hoobastank
01-27-02
Well, It took me long
enough, but I have this place fully operational. I've been up for...
Quite a while past my bedtime. Everything has been re-organized,
updated, and posted. I must say, it's an amazing relief. Perhaps now
the Fallon-God will be happy for a time. Speaking of time, he made me
go through all his files and find the dates for when he wrote each
poem. What a tedious little job! If I hadn't had to do that, I would
have been finished a whole five minutes earlier.
Oh, there is now an Inspiration page. Basically, it outlines
where Fallon-God and I get our ideas from. I'll say it right now: we are
both sort of pathetic... So be prepared. Oh yes, Fallon-God has changed
his e-mail address about 5 times now, and says the one I have posted
now will be his permanent one. 50 bucks says he forgets the password
and has to make a new one. Any takers? *smiles and winks*
Aighty, i'm tired now,
since my sugar-high wore off a few minutes ago.

Here I am again, for no
particular reason. I wrote a poem last night, and figured I might as
well post it with my others. Fallon has yet to give me more poems to
post for him, and I don't know when he will. Hopefully soon... he has
some good stuff that i'd like to see posted. I have other things to
do tonight, so i'll end now. As always, remember: Chickens may walk on
the shores of the Pacific at midnight, but pigs will always
fly at noon. Thank you.*sweet smile* Song of the Day: "One

Whoa, what happened to
yesterday? If I drank I would swear I had had a blackout... but I don't
drink, so that's out of the question. Seriously though, I took a day
off yesterday. Fallon called me his slave... Now isn't that rude? Ah
well. To prove him wrong, I shall only update when I actually feel like
it. Take THAT, Fallon-God! Muh ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...
Speaking of updating, I
have four more of my poems up and ready to
view. I also installed a counter on the poetry page, for no real
reason. Fallon and I are in amazingly good moods, for similar reasons,
and my attention span is shortened due to this. Read poems, and enjoy!
Peace out. Song of the Day:

Muh ha ha ha ha ha!
Fallon now has five of his poems posted here,
so mine don't feel so very alone. I still have a few questions for
him, but his internet connection and his overall mood have been...
Unpredictable. As of right now, he's extremely hyper and happy, but who
knows how he'll be in a few hours. And as for his internet connection?
Well, it likes to kick him offline. But ah well...
The website is coming
along quite nicely if you ask me. Simple, straight-forward, and it
doesn't take forever to load. Those are all good things, right? Right.
Fallon suggested setting up a forum (or bulletin board, if you prefer
to call it that), but I told him that we should wait to see if anyone
actually COMES to this site before I find a good forum to use. It's a
good thing that he agreed with me, because I wouldn't have added a forum
right now anyway. I did add a hit counter though, to keep the Fallon-God
appeased. (Fallon, you know it's all in good fun... heh.)
Well I suppose that's all for now... Song of the Day:

Okay. Pages now up and
running: F.A.Q., The Poems,Short Stories, and Contact The Poets. There are no stories up
at this time, and only four of my poems. Fallon had a few problems, and
was unable to send me a few of his poems to put up right away... Though
there will be some soon. I think that's all for now.... Song of the Day:
"Sick Cycle Carousel", By Lifehouse

About a week ago, Fallon
approached me with the idea for this website. I thought it was a rather
good idea, and, being as he doesn't have access to as many resources
as I do, I'm the one that will be in charge of all this.
Apparently.
Oh well, that's
perfectly alright with me. Just don't get the idea that I have
uber-experiece with this sort of thing. The real reason for the site
is so that we, The Romantic Poets, can share our poems - and perhaps
some stories as well - with a much larger audience than we have been
able to in the past.
I'm a busy person, and I
have more work to do, so i'll end with this small note:
All poetry
and stories are copyrighted to either Fallon Alistair or Spade Lasair,
unless specified otherwise. You may use any of our works, as
long as credit is given to us in return. Thank you.
