SHORT INTRODUCTION To RINGS A SCI FY FAN'S POEM!

by

Mark Walt. Meredith

I wrote a poem in the middle of sleeping when "one" woke up in the middle of night. It was when SCREAMERS '98 movie came out and "one" checked out the short story … "SECOND VARIETY" by Philip Dick. I was heavily into The HOBBIT prelude. After I looked at it and said to myself, "Nobody's going to be so into Lord Of the RINGS that anybody will find value in 'the poem'. What's going to make everybody like The Lord Of THE RINGS enough that this poem will become well liked" -? - Then THE LORD OF THE Rings movies came. After the three came and went I finally remembered and thought of that poem. I thought, "Oh yeah, remember that dumb poem -? - No one will ever like … LORD Of The RINGS enough to make that poem relevant -! - Wait a minute-themoviesare making THE RETURN Of The King hip topic -! - Wait a second -the poem is going to be a hot topic that is relevant-! -" -

"A SCI-FI Nerd's POem"

by

Mark Meredith

I'm stranded on this plain

my mom has left me

at this outpost all alone

I'm hunted by the scream

of the second variety

I have thrown the ring into the fire

I am a cross between, ring-wraith and lord of the rings

trapped in a cross between Beowulf and RAGNAROK

I have seen the runes

I'm haunted by made up monsters

the wide face, the flaming nostrils,

the slanted eyes of the BALROG.

Meredith-2 "…em"
