Poem comes in and quietly sits in the corner of confusion with Hawk.

Wookie is sitting down on a stool. "Get me another hot chocolate please," she sees to the bar tender. She looks around the bar. Everything seems normal. Hey more people are here. She fixes her hat and walks over to the fire place were the people that just got here are.

She takes a seat on a chair next to them. "Hi!" she sees all cheery.

"Uh... Hi?" sees one of them.

"Your Ranger Hawk, right?"

"Yeah."

"And your Poems, right?"

"Yes."

One of the waiters show up and hands her the hot chocolate she ordered. "Thank you," She sees to the waiter. "So," she sees looking at them again, "what do you guys want to talk about?"

"Hmm, anything good," Hawk muses, fiddling with her iPod. "What sort of music do you guys listen to?"

gsppcrocks10 sighs and puts down her book. "It's so loud in here I can't hear myself think." She grumbled. She walks over to the fireplace. "Do you mind?" She asks, glancing at an empty chair.
Just another quack spouting psychobabble.

Returning from holiday in Italy with a really, really great tan, pops head inside Tavern.

"Hi, y'all!" 'Y'all' isn't what we use in everyday conversation here in the East of England, but hey, it's a cool word. "Miss me?"

Vague "hi"s from people who don't actually know me.

"Huh. Figures."

Laugh, sit down, start talking to a random person next to me, and order a champagne. Because I feel like it.

Don't look old enough to drink. Probably because I'm not. Although I was mistaken for my ten-year-old sister's mum a few weeks back...

"ID?"

Fish in pocket and pull out a wallet. "Does fake count?"

Enjoy the look on the bartender's face when he reads that I'm 67.

Hawk looks around at the crowd around the fireplace that she unwittingly started.

Turns to Big_Cheesy_Grin. "So you're from England?"

"Well I pretty much listen to anything really." Ranger nods. "Well I'll leave you two talking if you feel like talking give me a ring," sees Wookie an gets up from her chair. Wookie starts walking around the bar looking for something to do. She sitts down on a sit close to a window watching the rain fall. The thunder roared. Everything was pretty quiet. Just the low sound of people talking. Then she starts hearing a familiar theme song. She looks up and sees a small TV in front of her. "OMG there giving Tom and Jerry!!!! Yay!!!!!!!" she sees very loudly. I really hope no one herd that...

Gsppcrocks10 sits down with poem and the rest of the people at the fireplace. "Hey, how is everyone?"

"Pretty awesome, thanks." Grins. Turns to Ranger Hawk. "Oh, call me Grin, or Cheesy, if you like. It's easier to type. Just avoid Big." Looks round. "That counts for all. I'm a friendly person. I don't want you to all torment yourselves typing it all over again and again." Laughing. Has another drink. "Yeah, I'm from England. It sucks. The weather is really naff. I should move to Italy. I want to move to Italy."

Realises I don't speak any Italian.

"Darn!!!"

Sits back and enjoys the conversation.

EDIT: Ooh, poem? What poem?

"Okay Cheesy," Hawk replies, getting overwhelmed by all the conversations surrounding her. "I really want to visit England someday. See the castles, get to use my English accent without getting weird looks...things like that you know?"
Laughter (or maybe it's just Hawk laughing). Awkward silence ensues, and Hawk turns to gsppcrocks10. "Can we hear your poem?"

FP walks into the tavern and glances over everyone there. He allows for a faint smile and walks over to the bar to order a drink. He asks for a root beer and leans against the back wall absorbing the atmosphere. "Sometimes I hate being the new comer."

Wookie walks over to the counter and orders another hot chocolate. It soothes the soul. "Trust me been their done that," she said taking a sip from her beverage.

Gsppcrocks10 glances up from her paper. "This? Roon wrote it. I'm going to head one of the chapters in my book with it." She passes the paper around.
There’s a glass wall
Between myself
And I,

Which separates a
Dream from
A lie,

I stare into that
Looking glass,

Wishing
I could change places,

Wishing
I could find that magical
Wonderland,

Where I could be set free,
Where I could lose
Myself and I,

Where I could,
For once,
Be me.

"What do you guys think?"

Answers Hawk first, because that's only fair...
Americans trying to do English accents is funny... if you don't want to be a laughing stock, I would do your own accent. I like the American accents. You're American, right? The castles are awesome but http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/ is not... have a look and you'll see what I mean.

Now then, poem. I'm sure I've seen that before. I loved it. Was it posted on YWS?
