The treeline stands as sentinels, Offering crowns to the crescent moon. The rooted column of soldiers Witness the slender shadow as it grew. A thumb sized fairy in its hand, Bent double to whisper tidings Of human flesh on sacred land. That which is sacrosanct Can not so easily be swayed! As all the beasts of myth and nightmares Charge on into the fray.
The knight finished taking a **** against the tavern wall, The last defence of the realm, children and us all.
Well.....
That and trebuchets,
Spears,
Swords.
All the tools of war.
Far beyond the Forrest front Pride, The Lord of Man Forges ill thought plans Lazily playing chess, cavalier With the lives of pawns. Thoughtlessly moving pieces with Trembling blood stained hands.
