Welcome to Rapture

Descend into uncharted waters
both beautiful and misleading,
where secrets lie behind every
corner and grotto.

Eerie creatures and sinister origins
fall fathoms below ,
and light cannot reach
the darkest cove of
this masked utopia.

Welcome to Rapture,
where "a man chooses, and a slave obeys"
in the unknown metropolis concealed by
a facade of circus faces,
and psychotic voices long repeating
"would ya kindly".

Revealed cryptic memories
among secluded diaries,
lurking to covet the sweat
entitled to your brow;

Forever lost in the briny deep,
bound to the emerald underworld,
a city hidden beneath the sea.

    It's also basically how they described Bioshock 2, but, it's not out yet, so this is a perfect description of a great video game!

    Wow, I love the imagery which you have created. Until I saw your footnote, I had no idea this was inspired by a video game. You are quite talented in your writing. Thanks for sharing.

    good

    Your have a gift in telling a story that lets the reader feel a part of what is unfolding before them. Your words play within our hearts and the game comes alive. The words sound good and paint a many colored canvas of sights and sounds that the reader can relate to.
