He of Dark Blood

“Orion-1

How blessed art thou2

To accuse me of dark blood3

Whose virtue mirrored that of the Minotaur4

And loyalty was that of a knight to his king.5

Valor of a thousand warriors,6

And the wisdom, of many wizards.7

Thou cursed me to this inclined prison8

Upon these frosted mountain tops.9

And thus..my wrath shall follow.10

Cursed be you-11

Children and women alike12

To play the folly of my spell13

To know the darkness as thy friend14

And sunlight as thy nemesis.15

Thy wives will be my whores16

And thy children my slaves.17

And cursed are they-18

To feast on flesh and blood19

And witness eternal youth.20

And no not the courtesy of love.21

Cursed be you-22

Church and nun23

For thou lust will be forever more present24

As to sin, and fornicate in front of god,25

And thus holy war, begotten your souls26

As I will lead the tempest to the jihad.27

And all your days-28

Words of hypocrisy will fill thy lips29

And no not the truth of a god less caring than thou observe.30

Damned be you-31

King and emperor,32

For your children, and their children’s children33

Will forever be marked in incest,34

And thus disease and famine will curse your rule35

And knowest not the cometh of war36

For I shall strike like a ghost in the fog,37

To take all your riches and power,38

For not even one as great as Merlin, would save thy hide!”39

And so it was written,40

Where he of dark blood spoke41

Eyes drenched with fury,42

Those blood soaked lips curved into a smile.43

To take head that of nightfall44

And take with him those who side by his dark sword.45

To drain Orion of life.46
