A knight left on his journey, Three days he claimed he'd take. He packed his gear, his blade shined queer; He'd made a huge mistake. A knight, left on his journey, A day he'd been alone. The hero's trail, a silent wail. He wanted to be home. A night left on his journey, The dragon lie in wait. As our hero neared, he slew his fear The beast he would away. A knight left, on his journey. And in the fight he flailed. He could only succeed as dragon feed. As a hero he had failed. A knight left on his journey, For others to partake. The beast was slain, 'mongst his remains They found the knight's mistake. A knight left on his journey With a blunted sword. The blade shone queer, and 'twas quite clear; Death was his reward.

Unswung Hero
A knight left on his journey, Three days he claimed he'd take. He packed his gear, his blade shined queer; He'd made a huge mistake. A knight, left on his journey, A day he'd been alone. The hero's trail, a silent wail. He wanted to be home. A night left on his journey, The dragon lie in wait. As our hero neared, he slew his fear The beast he would away. A knight left, on his journey. And in the fight he flailed. He could only succeed as dragon feed. As a hero he had failed. A knight left on his journey, For others to partake. The beast was slain, 'mongst his remains They found the knight's mistake. A knight left on his journey With a blunted sword. The blade shone queer, and 'twas quite clear; Death was his reward.
Just a lighter silly poem playing with words and whatnot. The title is literally nothing more than a gag, I couldn't resist. Forgive me. Let not your pursuit of your dreams keep you from the dreams themselves. Keep writing, -Sam Ciel ©Sam Ciel
