Basic Info
Name:Clive Lewis
Birthdate:11-29
Location:Bartleby, New York, United States
Bio
Clive Lewis is adopted, half-Chinese, and a Second Iraq War veteran. At the risk of sounding facetious, he is the author-poet reincarnated during his occupational 'blue period,' spiritual dearth and Linkin Park phase of development. He is comfortably bicurious and uncomfortably angry, and despite everything between good looks and some passionately devastating personal experiences, his self-esteem rests solidly at 'average.' He isn't as difficult to influence as he frequently tends to lead people to believe he is. There's a mad engine of drive and character behind him, but it's as wont to go careening off-track at backfired provocation as solidly ignore it.

An Expostulation
Against too many writers of science fiction

Why did you lure us on like this,
Light-year on light-year, through the abyss,
Building (as though we cared for size!)
Empires that cover galaxies
If at the journey's end we find
The same old stuff we left behind,
Well-worn Tellurian stories of
Crooks, spies, conspirators, or love,
Whose setting might as well have been
The Bronx, Montmartre, or Bedinal Green?

Why should I leave this green-floored cell,
Roofed with blue air, in which we dwell,
Unless, outside its guarded gates,
Long, long desired, the Unearthly waits
Strangeness that moves us more than fear,
Beauty that stabs with tingling spear,
Or Wonder, laying on one's heart
That finger-tip at which we start
As if some thought too swift and shy
For reason's grasp had just gone by?

-- CS Lewis


Look, Ma, one hand!



This is a roleplay prop for a fictional character based off the real life historical figure by the same name. Which would be Clive Staples Lewis. The fictional character is mine. The real guy wasn't. The stage on which this prop features is [info]literepetition.
