A Prince's Blood

The Kingdom’s seeds within his heart its reign a heavy stone The Jester dancing with the Queen caught naked on the throne His back now turned the Jack of Spades a dagger up his sleeve A palace coup in bold relief his lineage besieged The music stops the Jester laughs the Queen cries out for more The Princess in the tower where her subjects cry out ‘WHORE’ The drawbridge falls the King is back his armor red and stained The final battle yet unfought dark prophecy — ordained (The New Room: February, 2025)
