Can’t even think
Can’t say boo
Two by two we’re coming for you
Looking on ships
Bashing in heads
Can’t drown us out by taking your meds
Simon won’t help
Nor will your friends
You’ll never be able to make amends
This series is intended to honor some of my favorite poets and artists, so who better than Joss to style a poem after. This piece is based on the rhyme in "Hush." For some odd reason, the Gloves of Blue have always reminded me of the Gentlemen.
As always, I'm open to suggestions. Any special requests for pieces from your favorite Firefly baddy will be welcomed.
You can't take the sky from me
The first time I saw the "hands of blue" men, they reminded me of the Gentlemen too, which is spooky, 'cause that's one of the most scary episodes in the Buffy series.
In fact, I've not catched it was by the rythm of "Hush" when I've first read it, yet I've liked it nevertheless. It's a very nice adaptation, in fact, you just gave me an idea for a small adaptation. ^_^
But Mai, who would Badger send a letter to? =o
