The Final Hour
a majora's mask poem
Clock Town
darkens
beneath the
approaching
moon,
sealing the fates
of those who
have yet to evacuate.
*
The final night
before all comes
to an end,
those who remain
are spending their last
moments in fear, denial,
sadness, love, dread,
and acceptance.
*
Their saving grace
comes from a boy
with an ocarina,
who goes back in
time, over and over
again, just to fix their
problems and heal the spirits.
*
And with that
comes four giants,
the only ones
that can stop
the moon from
crushing the town,
summoned by a melody
that sounds so sad.
*
As they are rescued,
they ask that their friend
be forgiven for his sins.
It’s not his fault,
the mask is just controlling
him.
*
The Skull Kid
laughs behind the
Majora’s Mask, a puppet
to its twisted game.
*
The giants are
summoned.
The town is
protected.
Skull Kid is
released.
And Link fights
the mask inside the
moon with a face.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

What a perfect early reader fantasy story. Good job.
So the giants have any specific superpowers? Hehehe
