Author's Note: I don't know why I wrote this, I just did it. I haven't written poetry in ages, much less poem!fic. And for Sherlock? What the actual fuck! I am startled and confused by this turn of events. Especially since I am supposed to be working on that magic!AU or my Inception bigbang. :(

Two men meet by chance

On a cold autumn morn:

One in a long dark coat that danced,

And the other with a jumper well worn.

A marvelous meeting of two minds,

And of the most fortunate kind,

For London is expensive

(And they are both rather lonely.)

And Oh! for on this intrepid day,

Our hero has met his stray;

A kindly man with a soldier's gait

Has come and stole his heart away.

Together through London they roam,

Through the endless clues they comb,

And despite all winding ways,

They solve their cases and return home.

Burn! Burn! Burn! cries our hated villain,

But in the darkest night,

Our heroes shine twice as bright;

And when their eyes meet,

Betwixt them they greet

Their last farewell to all

With a brow in a quirk

And the slight hint of a smirk;

They turn and face the day.

Wonderful. Just wonderful. :)

I am so glad that I'm not the only one feeling the pull of other mediums because of Sherlock.

This is adorable, thank you for sharing.

This was very cool! I don't normally read poetry, but the idea of a 'poem-fic' intrigued me. Nice work :)

<3 Thank you! :D

Thank you for reading! :D

Thank you! <3

I like your poem, it's kind of really adorable. Mainly because both men involved are adorable. And also because you're a good writer (with evidently too much time on your hands thanks to your procrastination-y tendencies).

I hope you're happy now, cause that's the most you're getting out of me.

P.S. No, you're not getting me on tumblr, don't even start that campaign.

:D \o/ SUCCESS! Congrats, you are finally doing shit on the internet! :D And, well, my procrastination skills are hardly news. I am, in fact, very happy now. :3 I WILL PREVAIL IN GETTING YOU BACK INTO THE SWING OF FANDOM.

Thank you. ;) I do try with the writing. I don't always, or even mostly, succeed, but I do try. :)

P.S. I will get you on tumblr. I will. It's just a matter of time.....

I've been doing shit on the internet! I don't know why facebook isn't good enough for you. Again, I wish you luck, because something tells me you're gonna fail. ;)

P.S. You also said you'd somehow get me to come out of the closet once. You have yet to succeed there either. :b

Facebook doesn't count because facebook isn't fandom. >:| I WILL PREVAIL. See! See! I'm prevailing right now; you're actually using your LJ account!

P.S. I WILL IN TIME. YOU JUST DON'T KNOW IT YET.

P.P.S. What kind of energy do you want? You're going to have to be more specific than 'the cheep ones from blah blah'. Gimme a brand.

Internet=/=fandom. Be more specific.:b Yes to respond to you, this is the same as what happens on our walls.

P.S. You have to give yourself a deadline, otherwise its cheating.

P.P.S. I don't remember their names, Big Lots doesn't have a lot of variety anyways. All I remember is that they're like $.15, taste terrible and keep me up for hours.

My objective: Get Latte involved in fandom, which is primarily on the internet, in a way that doesn't just include me posting shit on her facebook wall.

PS. Deadlines are for squares. I'm a cube, dammit.

PPS. So, basically, it's crack in a can?

But that's still involved!! Just not actively....

PS That just means you get a three dimensional deadline. ;)

PPS. Yes but legal. It probably tastes worse then crack too...

You need to be ACTIV, not PASIV. /is lame

PS. What does that even mean? How do you have a three dimensional deadline?

PPS. Oh dear. How much caffeine is in it? Or do I not want to know?

Yes, you are lame...

PS. I don't know! Your the one who claimed to be a three dimensional shape on the theory that the rest of the world in 2 dimensional. Maybe you have to pick a deadline in each alternate universe?

PPS. I'm guessing a lot. It did wonders for us during tech weeks. :)

Yes, well, my lameness is not news. Jeez, Latte, you should know this by now.

PS. That would be more fifth dimension than third. :/ And considering the number of alternate universes.... though if I could find the one in which YOU DIDN'T LEAVE ME YOU BITCH it might be worth it.

PPS. I bet it did. God, no wonder the drama department was fucking insane. I thought it was just because Coach S did an alarming number of drugs.

The things I do to please you.

I am sending you chocolate and coffee; you're damn right you should please me

You make a strong argument. Touche.

Of course I make a strong argument; I'm right!

You're right that I should please you. but your objective is wrong.

OFF-TOPIC: LJ is pissing me off tonight! >:(

You should slap it.

I did; it didn't work.

You could always shoot it, but then it would be dead...

Then I would lose a major source of entertainment....
