Legend

LEGEND

You hope it will-won't be revealed

What earthly laws by shame conceal:

The Legend penned

In caverns sealed:

A golden runner, dead-end dream,

Impregnable walls, stifling seams.

You break to bend,

So it would seem.

I’m Legend! cries from deep within

You made me thus, now let me in!

You deeper send

His vampire grin.

Imprisoned, lonely in his cell,

He weeps; he plays at casting spells.

A death impends,

This banshee yells.

This dwarf, this Hyde, primordial tale

Shrieks for birth to no avail.

What he intends

Can’t be curtailed.

You wrote him; now he’s yours to bear,

Though nonchalance you’re pained to wear.

Brave heart, defend

This Legend’s dare;

Your dark friend lives. Beware! Beware!
