The Saga of Terminal City No. 6
What if fallen angels got a second chance?
In The Saga of Terminal City they do, freed from prison to walk the earth, doing good -- if they can.
Evil forces threaten the blue ark of Earth. Change is coming, but will it be for good or bad? Of history’s relentless march partake, in Evil Ape. (No. 6).
30 chapters, 2400 lines of poetry, all written in modern epic verse.
Synopsis
The fruits of earth, those that bud, good and bad,
or indiff’rently, rich temptation are
to them in star-heights or hovels dwelling.
To distant pastures are they called: the foe,
of sky-scraped immensity, his pursuit,
those of game-able gist, hardcore train-mates,
and he, in augmented, upright glory,
the fearsome Ape, who conniving concocts
these events. To epoch-evolving springs,
in green glens, his loathsome Ape armies troop
where also those monitors, ex-angels,
embark, aided by artisan allies,
an ancient breed, the thumb-thimbled tailor,
and meddles too fatherly CEO’s,
with stakes in mutable technology.
Predictable ruin if life-beds are lost,
a leaf-toothed visitor from other worlds
intones, and of the people launches two,
new Shepherds to be in upcoming times,
while to space again most actors return,
there to slug out, and embed, new life-lines
—though forward points the will of fate, new earths,
with new men, to come in founded chapters.
Bio
His mind corrupted by childhood exposure to horror movie matinees, but equally enthralled by the atmosphere of old churches, Simon Pole writes galactic poetry from the location of Vancouver, British Columbia. A graduate of Harvard University, Simon has continued his studies of what is hidden in the dark. Writing is also in his blood, being the great-great-grandson of early Canadian poet Susie Drury.
