וולדהארי בעולם המתים
לכבוד הולדתה של L, אני ותמיר כתבנו לה פואמה אפית על בסיס Attila's Treasure.
וולדהארי הפרנקי, עייף מזקנה,
רצוץ מקרבות וימים,
נשם ונשף נשימה אחרונה
ועזב את עולם החיים.

וולדהארי בעולם המתים
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008עד אלייך
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008עד אלייך
מבוסס על Bow's Turned Back של הת'ר אלכסנדר.
משה צדקה כתב גרסה מתורגמת לאנגלית שאפשר למצוא כאן
בבדידות הליל, אחשוב רק עלייך,
ביושבי בין כיסא ומסך.
בוהה בעינייך, שבוי בקסמייך,
רוצה ורואה רק אותך.
כבר הגיע הזמן שאצא מכאן,
אעזוב את שתיקת המשרד;
אבל לא, עוד לא – כי את כאן, את פה,
אנחנו סוף סוף לבד…
רצים הת'רדים בבוהק לדים,
עובד המעבד עד כלות.
אפל החדר, עולה התדר –
אני מוכן להתעלות,
עד אלייך…

One Long Way
TTTO "One Big Sea" by Talis Kimberly. Spoilers for Doctor Who episode "Girl in the Fireplace".
He is gone and will not return.
Doesn't prevent me waiting for him.
Watched the fireplace as it burned:
Didn't so much as get glimpses of him.
And I still can see his face, hear his voice,
Je Regrette.
He hasn't changed a bit since the day that we first met.

Based on the movie Bridge to Terabithia, and may contains spoilers to it.
Tune: Original.
You can run fast, but you know I run faster.
Race you someplace where you've never been?
A place where us, lowliest kids, reign as masters,
A place like you've never seen.
Though it's hidden, I see it, and from what you've told me
I think you are one of those who see it too;
This rope may look frayed but I know it'll hold me,
And this crossing is meant for two –
Terabithia's calling for you.

Soul of Filking
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008Soul of Filking
After Fantasy.Con, at which after I stopped singing someone said, "Great, now let's all cut our throats!" I resolved to start writing more cheerful stuff.
…I think I just failed.

…I think I just failed.
TTTO "Hallelujah", the Rufus Wainwright version.
I think there is a basic tune
In ancient verse, in word and rune –
But you don't really care what I am thinking.
And whether that is right or wrong
I hear it within every song;
I think that it must be the soul of filking.

Zoe's Lament
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008Zoe's Lament
The following contains SERENITY SPOILERS!!!
So, you can probably guess it's a Firefly filk. Also, ose. I wanted to write something about Kaylee, and then it got warped.
Tune: Original.
I think life is an apple you hold in your hand.
Tell me, isn't is sweet? Tell me, isn't it grand?
But with one careless bite, you might just understand
How life can blow you to shreds.

tShell, Ma Belle
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008tShell, Ma Belle
Wrote the following during a course about a real-time OS called VxWorks (NASA wrote the Mars Lander with it!). One of my fellow students started singing "tShell, my belle", and I couldn't help but pick up the gauntlet.
Tune: Beatles' "Michelle, Ma Belle"
tShell, ma belle,
Turned my life into a living hell,
My tShell.
tShell, ma belle,
All the other tasks are stuck on PEND,
my tShell.
I need to, I need to, I need to,
I need to get this done.
Can't think of silly puns;
Until I do, my sanity will have to hold up.
tShell, oh well –
Nothing's working so I might as well
Kill tShell.
Reboot, you brute!
I know something rotten is afoot –
To the root!
I killed you, I killed you, I killed you,
And yet you wouldn't die.
I don't know how or why,
So I will press the only key to which you deign to respond
My tShell.
A Screen Too Blue
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008A Screen Too Blue
Tune: Three Weird Sisters' "A Gown Too Blue"
::sounds of computer loading::
Running at 100% CPU
I test the pitiful programs I do.
Running in debug mode
I try to test my code
Praying to God it'll work.
Breakpoints and debug prints,
Searching for clues and hints,
Hunting the bugs that still lurk.
I suffered from over-confidence;
Thought I could make this work right.
What I wrote yesterday makes no sense;
God, this'll take the whole night!

Neverfly
יום שני, אוקטובר 20th, 2008Neverfly
I've developed an intensly negative reaction to the "Go-Play-With-Fairies" brand of filk. I mean, I'll enjoy the songs as much as the next person, but I dislike the worldview they portray – "We don't belong, we should run away someplace where we'll be happy". It's annoyingly irresponsible.
Besides, I quite like the idea of growing up.
Tune: Heather Alexander's "Neverland"

הקלטה בביצוע דנה כץ, ללא ליווי.
Once we all were children, and so it was we played,
But then I had to grow up and I left you where you stayed.
I married my dear James, the bravest man I've ever known,
And had my Darling Angela, a daughter of my own.
