Inglemia Army of Fire Elevator Pitch

"Imagine Honor Harrington meets Discworld in a DNDesque setting on shrooms.   The Gods are long since soupcanned and their bosses are forced to rely on very imperfect tools to fix the mess.  Imagine a Mary Sue finding out that she's actually a lovecraftian starspawn but for magic"

[Poem] Chat PJB

 by Emmit Other 

Attorney General Pamela Jo Bondi

Justifies redacting the Epstein Files

(Illegally)

With a spinning top LLM defense

"Why did you redact the files?"

The robot answers

"Why arent you clapping for leader Trump harder?"

A representative asks,"Who do you work for?"

The automaton from the Hall of Presidents replies

"Buy tickets to Melania today! 95% on Rotten Tomatoes!"

An exasperated representative finally asks

"are you even human?"

The Sex Doll says

"I am whatever Daddy Trump wants me to be

In a Barbie World

Its fantastic

To be fasc plastic!"

Pedo Jim Jordon defended

Pedo Defender Bondi

By saying

"Leader Trump let me take a turn with her

Fair is fair, 

Your time may not be reclaimed"

Bondi replied

"The Stock market is high

Just like I am!"

Matthew 7: 21-23

 King James Version

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.


22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?


23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

My Honorable Opponent

[Poem] Obi Wan Without a Luke

 by Emmit Other

My life has been harsh

My roads winding and twisted

Hidden and obscured in the mists of Samsura

I am not a Guru

But I do feel Power to My Name

The Solidity of Who I Am

I Echo Lessons Learned

A few scraps are perceived

But I hear the final scene of the Death Star

The moment where I'm supposed to say

"Luke Use The Force"

"Let Go"

And....then two photon torpedoes go into the thermal exhaust port

But there is no Force

And there is no Luke Skywalker

Only the Music

And the Empty Air

And I certainly dont have an X-Wing

Lying Around

Do you?

Status Update - 2026

First off all the easy stuff: Word count

Grenademan vs the Lich: 18K

Armor of Stone: 36K

The King is Dead: 9.8K

I have also started two new projects: An adaptation of Poetry of Elmer Gantry called "The Women of Gantry" and dusted off and restarted "I Asherah" which is likely to exceed "I, Odysseus" in length covering prehistory; old testament, new testament, the middle ages and "revelations" and the aftermath.   She is a powerful figure and clearly has a lot to say.

The bigger update is once I have a full day "day job" I will contact the artist I've already paid a down payment on "The Queen in Blue" for the kickstarter and will publish there.

Great things are coming.

Amazon Ask a Book

 Amazon is feeding my IP in violation of the TOS I signed when I agreed to publish into an AI that lets people ask LLM about my property in a way I cannot vet; as a result of this decision, all Red Anvil Publshing proprties have since been removed from the Amazon website.  While I had a plan to stop selling anything NEW there; my existing books have also been removed because I will not sell with a company that profits from the theft of my work or the work of anyone else.

Watch this space for new places my works can be sold.

[Poem] Project 14

 by Emmit Other

We All Want to Change the World

Sometimes

Unemployed

Discontinued Disowned Disavowed

Too Old  

Not What You Once Were

So the Poet Donned Black Cloth Robes

And a Facemask

and 14 Arrows Did he Quiver

To Change the World

Ideas for their Own Sake

Long Odds Every One

To see

Maybe

if the World Could

In Fact

Be Changed

[Poem] Ohenton Karihwatehkwen

 by Emmit Other

Words Above All Else

Is what the Mohawk say

For Thanksgiving

And I thought

It was invented by Lincoln

It was not

Witness:

The Mohowk still celebrate this event

A profound gratitude for Mother Earth

And what is provided

Gratitude is where humility and kindness meet

Under the eternal sun

Witness

Ronald Raygun introduced the Turkey Pardon

As a gag with later full pardons

And cute names

Conservatives project

Did you know that a Presidential Pardon implies an admission of guilt?

What is the turkey guilty for?

It isn't.  

But I am sure it is grateful for its life.

Witness:

Of 574 Recognized Tribes in the US today

We have broken our word to every single one of them

Massachusets celebrates indigeneous people's day

But still doesnt recognize besides a footnote

That the Wampanoag and Mohawk

Had traditions years and years before the Puritans

(Never call them fucking Pilgrims)

Aeons before the colonizers

Witness:

The Massachusetts Indigenous Legislative Agenda

Asks for five things
-Remove racist fucking mascots
-Remove Racist Italian American Day with Indigenous American Day
-Ensure the best funded schools in the country teach about Native traditions and history
-Protect Native American Heritage with sketchy Hobby Lobby Style grey market bullshit
-Set up a schoolarship for Native American Youth

Domenic Amara and state Rep. Jeffrey Rosario Turco

Love Racist Italian American Day so much

And want to stop this bill

But the other shit 

Is as transparent as Glass

And Beacon Hill

Is a Cess Pit

Gene Weeden-Williams and Billerica, Springfield (High School of Commerce), and Middleborough 

Want to keep their racists mascots

Witness:

G.O.Pee Governal Candidates Mike Kennealy and Brian Shortsleeve

Oppose changing the racist state seal

Witness:

Every year Plymoth celebrates thanksgiving

Straight out of adams Family Values 2

And Standish Investment Group.

Violated tribal sovereigny AGAIN

Bulldozing in trbal land

Every Massachusets state government institution

Celebrates Not Racist Italian Americans Day

But Dukakis made a decision

Arbitrarlily and Randomly

Decades ago

And since then

People like Standish have been weaponizing tribes

That didnt make the cut

Governor Cardboard Healey

Added the bulldozed tribe

As an after thought

-Chappaquiddick Band of Massachusetts
-Chappaquiddick Tribe of the Wampanoag Indian Nation
-Chaubunagungamaug Band of the Nipmuck Nation
-Cowasuck Band of the Pennacook-Abenaki People
-Assawompsett-Nemasket Wampanoag
-Pocasset Wampanoag Tribe
-Seaconke Wampanoag Tribe
-Nipmuc Nation (still fighting for federal recognition despite state recognition)
-Natick Nipmuc of Natick
-Nipmuc of Webster and Dudley
-Massachusett Tribe (Ponkapoag band)

Those who can dither and worry about less of the pie for themselves

What are we thankful for?

Why do we celebrate the pardon of the Turkey?

Beacuse the Turkey is our policy on Native Americans

It is a half assed joke thinkly veiled celebration of colonialism

Now pass the massed potatoes

The Queen in Blue - The Five Faces of the Dreamer


Opening Hook

"Welcome back, fellow travelers of the weird. Today we're diving into the final three stanzas of the poem 'I, Hastur' - arguably the most dangerous piece in the entire Emerson Portfolio. This is where everything comes together: the Shepherd, the Darkness, and the Yellow King converge in a dance that literally shaped reality itself."

Segment 1: "The Yellow King Speaks" (Stanza 3)

The third stanza reveals the Yellow King's own perspective - speaking in first person about its nature as a living idea, a memetic force that has corrupted civilizations throughout history. Key discussion points:

  • The Yellow King's claim to have "always been" yet also having an origin point
  • The litany of fallen cities: Dilmun, Atlantis, Troy, Iram of the Pillars, El Dorado
  • The revelation that the King exists in a temporal loop
  • The twisted love story at its heart - the King's obsession with "Her" (the Queen in Blue)
  • How the King describes itself as simultaneously hate incarnate yet capable of love

Analysis: This stanza humanizes the cosmic horror in the most disturbing way possible - showing that even entities of pure corruption can experience genuine emotion, making them more dangerous, not less.

Segment 2: "We Are Hastur" (Stanza 4)

The fourth stanza shifts to the original Hastur - the Count who became the first Yellow King through autogenocide (destroying all alternate versions of himself). Discussion includes:

  • The aristocratic origin story in Carcosa
  • The child who played with spiders and learned dark magic
  • The Phantasmagoria Ball as the ultimate ritual
  • The disturbing mechanics of becoming the Yellow King through self-annihilation across infinite realities
  • The [REDACTED] play section that was literally torn from the manuscript

Listener Warning: Rhombus Ticks himself warned that this section nearly cost him his sanity. The memetic infection is real, folks.

Segment 3: "The Queen in Blue Opera" (Stanza 5)

The final stanza presents Scriabin's operatic translation, allegedly from Sanskrit found in Etruscan ruins. This is where we get:

  • The dual narrative structure following both the maid Boquet and the cosmic entities
  • The famous refrain: "Thou shalt dance with the queen tonight boys"
  • The Dreamer/Hound's declaration of power over nightmares
  • The convergence at the Phantasmagoria Ball where King and Queen finally meet
  • The paradox explained: "The Dreamer is the King / But the King is not the Dreamer"

The Core Revelation: The Queen in Blue tamed the Yellow King through a combination of love, strategy, and the deployment of the Ethan Baton bloodline as a "check" against the King's power. She founded a lineage specifically designed to produce someone who could focus the Dreamer's power against the King when needed.

Closing Analysis

These three stanzas complete the cosmic chess game:

  • The Shepherd/Haita provides the white light of protection
  • The Darkness represents entropy and the void
  • The Yellow King embodies corruption and ascension through hubris
  • The Queen in Blue uses love and strategic patience to maintain balance
  • The Dreamer/Hound acts as enforcer of the balance

The poem suggests all five faces are aspects of Hastur, operating across different layers of reality simultaneously.

Final Warning

Remember Dr. Bathory's forward: read this material once if you must, but protective rituals are recommended. Rhombus himself became infected and had to journey to Carcosa seeking answers.

As always, stay skeptical, stay safe, and remember - some knowledge comes with a price.

[End theme: discordant strings fading into static]

[Poem] King Trump

 By Emmit Other

There is a king who isnt

Who think he is but wont

Admit it 

Cause he is Donnie Dont

He admit guts like Hitler

And has a Cabinet full of Bats

Dude cant keep his underwear

From soiling like the box o cats

His minions are not cute and yellow

But red faced drunk and angry

But totally not SS Hello!

For a guy that needs depends

He uses the Constitution for TP

Rumor on the street is

He has a tiny mushroom peepee

Rumor also lets us know

There is a buncha protests

No Kings No Kings No Kings today

Or know nothing like Jon Snow

The Queen in Blue - I Hastur - The Unspeakable


The shepherd’s quiet guardianship meets its first true resistance as the ancient dark stirs—and what creeps within it becomes the Unspeakable. The shift is gradual: things “crept into the Darkness / and became something Unspeakable,” until the shepherd realizes the void is awake and fighting back.

The Queen in Blue - Deployed

The clash rips the spirit-realm’s middle lands—especially the Dreamlands—into shreds; the shepherd’s pain echoes across creation, but the Unspeakable suffers more.

The Queen in Blue - Deployed

It isn’t a clean victory; rather, the shepherd barely prevents the Unspeakable from rousing the elder powers “when the stars were not right.”

The Queen in Blue - Deployed

Then the Sign arrives, branding the world in three hues—Black (Unspeakable), White (Shepherd), Yellow (Carcosa)—stabilizing the realm even as it deepens its corruption.

The Queen in Blue - Deployed

The roar of whispers that once promised the Old Ones ebbs to a faint hiss; for a time, balance holds—but only as a war of attrition.

[Poem] Deacons Little Finger

 By Emmit Other

Dis is complex 

But I willz simplifies

Authority is a spiritual drivers liscence

A church uses to say 

How you connect to Gawd

Catholics claim tis Peter

The Rock and Line of Christ

Protestants say its da Bible

You has a direct line to Gawd

Mormons say Gawd waited 

1700 years

To reconnect da phone

Cause the True Church needed

Mericuh

Der is an LDS joke

That a deacon

(A 12 year old boy)

Has more Authority 

In his little finger

Than da Pope

But last I check

The Pope is condemning Nazis

Dallin H Oaks?

Crickets

And the prophet before him

So do you believe Gawd loves nazis

Or maybe

Just maybe

Jospeph Smith

Was lying

The Queen in Blue - The First Shepard (I Hastur)


In this opening stanza, the story pulls us back to a primordial time—before the moon cast its shadow, before Carcosa, even before humanity’s discovery of fire. We meet the figure who would become known as the First Shepherd, a good man who loved his sheep so deeply that their bond transcended the physical. Together they dreamed, and in those dreams, he stood guard.

When nightmares threatened his flock, he discovered fire—not as a tool for cooking or hunting, but as a weapon of protection. Fire here is cast not as mankind’s first technology, but as a spiritual gift: a beacon to guard innocence against the darkness. This act transforms him from a simple caretaker into a mythic figure. The stanza closes on a warning—fire protects, but fire also burns. Its power is double-edged, foreshadowing the ambivalence of every gift that comes from beyond
