A Freebooter's Fantasy Almanac: a sort of real cyberspace memoir

This is poetry, wrapped in fantasy, within a memoir... Or, to put it another way, it's a true tale that applies to many fantasy fans and gamers who can't be bothered with keeping their realities separated from their more lurid inventions. In my case this is a sort of 'real' cyberspace profiling, during a phase of my life when roleplay truly did need to be therapy, because what was happening around me for real, was not what I wanted to participate in. So, buckle up your swash and prepare to witness a titanic battle played out on the field of sanity - where what happens in your head is the only truth that matters.
