You say Artifacts, I say Artefacts...

(Disclaimer: Please note I do not have most of these, despite what Arwyn
thinks).

1. Bed

Oh my bed
You keep me away
From interruptions
Come what may.

Golden silence
Yes my bed is
Worth it though it
Cost me credits.

2. Wings

Flying to the clouds
With undisguised elation
Although you can only take me
To ten specific locations.

And you are a help in Foozling
Or when there's eggs to gain
Unless major teleports are off
And then it's just a pain.

3. Helm of Telepathy (mythical artefact)

Sometimes I covet you
Especially when I've been drinking
But is it really what I want -
To know what others are thinking?

Any artist knows the feel
Of failure's dejection.
Would I want to hear the truth,
Or just the polite rejection?

4. Shield of Absorption

I love you because I cannot use another
Except the buckler, which I hate
Because it's bloody useless
Hiding behind a dinner plate.

Still you aren't perfection
There's some important tips
Like remembering to swap you with my flute
'Cos blowing you hurts my lips.




Penned by my hand on the 11th of Lupar, in the year 395 AF.
