A Whisper In Devil's Ear

Devil’s ear—  
Whisper sharp,  
Power bends.  

Vulnerable,  
A crack, a slip,  
Whispers twist.  
Promises grow.  

Touch the crown,  
Tremble at night.  
Corruption stirs,  
Fleeting thoughts.  

Shadows reach—  
Weakened hands,  
Severed ties,  
Towers rise.  

A word—  
Rots the roots.  
A spark, a flame,  
Consumes the sky.  

Fragile dream,  
Vulnerable mind,  
Night falls heavy,  
Whispers climb.  

Chains loosen,  
Thrones crack,  
A silent scream—  
Devil’s ear.  

Endless night,  
Power shifts,  
Corruption blooms,  
Weakness spreads.  

Tears of ruin,  
Grains of truth,  
Shattered hope.  
A crown decays.  

A single word,  
Loud and pure,  
Echoes deep,  
The Devil’s ear—  

Devil’s ear,  
Whisper sharp—  
Power bends,  
The world undone.
