Lighten up!

Mar 4, 98

Part I --

Dragonheart

Fool's gold! Fool's gold!
I was lured
       under
    by its deceiving glitter
Whilest dangers untold
Enclosed me in their crypt.

A breath, a blink
The ground beneath me sinks
Revealing

A rose turned sour
A thousand grains
    drill
A mirror breaks, kills
A knight in armour, stripped of his sword
His kilt, bleached red
    a fallen petal
Wrinkled and twarted
His cry echoes abroad

And raises the dead.
