Annwn's Cauldron

Many brazen men have 
failed to win her sanctity;
shouting foolish taunts
to vex The Fays of Chastity.

How eager they are 
to gnash and gnaw
the bones of 
The Strange-Very Strange,

and how willing they are to wager 
away precious wit and whim
to win a prophetic poet bride 
for the musing of Taliesin.

O prophetic poet bride, no foolish taunt I yell As pilgrim to your mystic dell That legends may tell, but no so well As what aroused my senses tell You are better than all I have heard Bard and savant of the word Great Thvia, here take my heart to crown Thy fame, thy servant in its common round
