It is an ancient Mariner,
And he stoppeth one of three.
`By thy long beard and glittering eye,
Now wherefore stopp'st thou me ?

No, it's the Rime of the Ancient Mariner, lol. I've read it waay too much through my high-school career. I think people think The Mariner is the bird, but the Albatross is the bird, and it symbolizes guilt, or sins and repentence or something. It's a very good epic, in any case. If you understand what they're talking about. A Mariner is a word for a sailor, and that's the guy who tells the story. If you ever want to read and understand it, there are Sparknotes on it. I think you'd like it

It is an amazing poem. People have asked me if I've based The Mariner of it, but I haven't. It was just an idea that came to my head. But yah, Rime of the Ancient Mariner is definitely one of my faves.

I have to admit, I really like this. Mythical creepy-like. Coupled with a few of your other creations and this fella, I think an intriguing story could develop. Or maybe it already has, aaaand as usual, I missed it.

Well, the Mariner is part of my friend's story. I have only read the beginning so far, and it sounds really good. The critter thing hasn't even appeared in the story yet, but it's very good.

And thankya for the comment and fav ^.^

You totally portrayed him awesomely. (That wasn't so grammatical ><

It's like he's grinning, and saying "I eated it."
