Half-life

I'm not alive
At best I'm only half alive
I sleep, and breathe, and
Occasionally I eat
But I have no will to strive
For that elusive something
People need to have
That keeps them from destruction
Allows them to survive.

That's a beautiful picture. Put together with the poem, though, the bear seems so forlorn. It seems he's looking for something.

Of course he's looking for something - his Lyra.

So she can help him find his armor :P

It's not still missing is it?

Metamatician said...

I always seem to misplace it :-|

That´s why Lyras and Ioreks are made for each other. Lyras are superb armour-finders and Ioreks willing to protect Lyras at whatever cost. And when neither of those is required they can romp across the ice-fields and enjoy mugs of hot cocoa (to wash down the odd seal for the panserbjorn) together.

Hot cocoa sounds good, preferably by a crackly fire with the lights off.

Unknown said...

But of course. If you´re going to have hot cocoa, there´s nothing better that drinking it in front of a log fire and letting the light it gives play in the shadows of the room. Oh, and I forgot to add the brandy to the cocoa.
