Stairway to the Sky

In honor of all legit third jobbers out there, who have stuck it through 70 levels and still haven’t quit.

Stairway to the Sky

The road to level seventy is tough;
many try to reach that mark and fail.
The bulk of them think fifty-one’s enough
and in the end, Nature will prevail.

But some choose not to quit, not to turn tail.
You’ll keep on training hard till you get there
Whatever’s thrown at you, a storm, a gale,
you simply take it, try harder, persevere.

And when that third job advancement comes ever near
when zombies are naught but monotony
keep it up and soon you will appear
before the welcome gate of seventy.

And even after you’ve reached it, way up high,
you keep climbing the stairway to the sky.

How is it? If it sucks, be honest. Brutally honest. I can take constructive criticizm. Just not flames. I don’t like flames.

  1. A lot of my friends quit at level 51. If you took part in PQ a lot, you would know what I’m talking about.

  2. So true. So true. You hit many key points with that poem.

    I can remember thinking I would never reach the second job advancement, wondering if I would ever be able to equip an Asianic; cursing my internet connection every time I disconnected. After ten levels at zombies, I sometimes feel like I’ll turn into a zombie myself. I also like how you express that level seventy is not a destination but a gateway to greater deeds.

    I don’t compute.
