1 poem to the September 26, 2000 issue.
Saun was born March 20, 1983 in Burlington
County Hospital. He has lived 15 years in his current residency of the
Medford area. Three of his childhood years, he spent living in Kensington,
PA. He went to elementary school in Saint Mary of the Lakes. (Most likely
where his mixed and sarcastic ideals on faith sprang forth from.) Saun was
a recluse in school as well as outside, and spent his childhood years
amongst a select group of friends. He is a percussionist as well as a
hopeless romantic. He now is in his junior year of Shawnee High School, and
plans to attend college at BCC for two years (for his associates) and an
additional four years at either Drexel or Rowan. He plans on joining the
armed services. The major he plans on during college is physics, and he
aspires to someday work for NASA.

The Ballad of Eric Draven and
Shelley Webster
There is a tale to be told
Two lovers hold each other in the cold
From the darkness sparks a hate
Out of vengeance comes a fate
Love so strong it cant be broken
A simple memory of a kiss is but only a token
Out of fear and of fury
Our hero fights for his love in a hurry
To kill his captives, a goal is set
To free his love from the separation they met

Shadows Weeping
Following
a stranger, I've known all my existence
Through
and through, I share his perils
Carrying
his erasable mark, grabbing and clinging
To
his side
He
disregards me, barely noticing my stretching attempts in the sun
I
wish I could be him, the reason I'm with him
Following
a part of me, I could never reach out and touch
Through
and through, I grip to my bright side
The
one I show to this world, holding on and riding
By
his side
He
thinks nothing of me, only lets the sun cast me away
I'm with him
to hold him in the darkness, the reason I stay
