A Contrary Fairy Tale (Poem)


Wearing death like a soldier’s cloak
Stomping around in the dreams of the ignorant
Your eyes are sweet, green sponges
Capturing forts, and wayward sojourners
Bright gray ores trap the dreams of your foes
The pitter patter of children’s feet grows faint
The earth tastes like old bread when the seasons cease changing
The pernicious result of your bronze scepter rule
The path to your Tree is paved with stolen ambitions
Fairies glide between woven branches
Unaware of the rocks all humans must chisel
