Dungeons and Dragons

And of course, in the game I am tall,
strong, intimidating, but kind-hearted,
gentle. I am a fighter, the team shield,
a pianist who reluctantly took up arms
but still holds passion for art
and spirituality. In game, each morning,
he prays. It is routine: sunup, shower,
submission. And of course, he is devout,
doubt plagues him once in his life,
and only for a moment before it ends. Each
morning when I wake, I too have a routine: sun,
up, shower. In game, I make it a point
to say that he prays each and every
morning. And of course, when I wake
each morning, I wonder if, like his, my moment
will end.
