Gully’s Return
Oi, me achin’ head!
nor suffer the throbbin’
‘tis robbin’ me life of a ball.
Oi, hush ya the drama!
ha’e no pity for that
a screech of the cat in me skull.
Oi, laugh and be light!
wipe off the frown on yer face
know yer place in the scheme of it all.
Oi, give me a hug!
‘tis you I’ve been missin’
for kissin’ your lips cures it all.
I’ve been the Tom astray
wanderin’ ‘yon ‘twixt here and away
but you are me hearth and home
and from you, me heart will never roam.

Haley Cork and the Blue Door
She is no different than your typical small town girl -- at least in appearance. When the Blue Door of Veselago needs someone to carry our its plans, it reaches out to a most unlikely person. The moment she steps through the Blue Door, Haley doesn't become the servant of an ancient war machine, but rather bends it to her own will so she can save humanity from the ultimate evil.
