You have to go out.
The Ocean roared,
And made itself known,
Awakening all aboard,
Their heart dropped, a mighty groan.
The ship kissed the Shoals,
She was stuck tight,
Stranding her with all souls,
A most terrifying Plight.
As Her crew fired a flare,
And screamed to their god,
A man on patrol spotted the glare,
And knew this was no Façade.
He returned to the Station,
Of the Life Saving Service,
It was at a Nearby Location,
He knew he was no Reservist.
The man was no Quiet Fellow,
He was naught a famous man,
But His comrades answered his Bellow,
And soon constructed a plan.
And so a group of brave men,

Of Blood and Steel
Owen L. Tewart
A Free-verse
----------------------------
Peace is wrought,
Of blood and steel,
Iron and lead,
It's just surreal,
Men who fought,
Men who lost,
Men who paid,
The final cost,
Know this is truth,
Lost guiltless youth,
In a war,
Of blood and steel.
The wind did blow,
Across Stalingrad's plateau,
With golden glow,
The bombs let go,
As the Nazis and Russians were toe to toe,
There was an extreme woe,
As the blood did flow,
Across crimson snow.
Across hot sand,
Tanks did demand,
A good command,
As wells as a fight,
Close at hand,
Needing the oil lands,
In one last fight,
Which none would understand?
Rommel and Montgomery,
Would take the stand.
After Pearl Harbor,
America did crack its whip,
Setting out on a ocean trip,
For this was not a guilt trip,
But a quest for the landing strips,
From island to island they did skip,
For it was their right, the pistol they gripp
The Iron Horse
---
A train is like a chain,
Crossing an American Plain
Not in vain, does it attain,
Ascendancy o'r jet planes,
To sustain freedom's domain.
Ode to a Locomotive
----------------------
On a pass called Marias,
A beast roars loud,
Growling along steep slopes,
Smokey, greasy
Powerful, strong
The ruler of this land,
A servant of the industry,
This iron horse bellows,
As it flies through tunnels,
Fast, Beautiful
Passing the men,
Who keep it on track,
This beast is America's lifeblood,
The fuel for her people,
Protecting America,
Moving her troops,
As she asks for preservation,
The Iron Horse bellows,
Shrill, long
Thunder on the rails
She pulls into the station,
After her long trip,
She's home.

With this new update to Deviantart, I have checked the oldest deviation I have in my messages.
The deviation I stopped deleting my deviations at was posted:

I currently have 6,824 deviations in my messages.
Alright, I've had alot of favorites on my MSTS screenshots. So what do you guys think? should I bring back MSTS and start working on screenies ect for you nice people for the Cinnabar Rail System? This in turn would include some writing for it.
Normally this wouldn't be something you ask, but I'm not sure if I want to yet.
In my recent deviant "War train" I attempted sadly to make a number of explosions. While they are.... reasonable at best, I am taking suggestions to make them better. As well as ideas on smoke/contrails for rockets and the like.
Any ideas?
