Bosom Pledge of Fidelity
I will bleed for you,
like I bled for her
You’re my new queen;
and I’m a changing of the guard,
palace loyal horseman
My sword of blood sworn fealty
will battle travel
on your conquering wind destiny
With an unwavering falcon crest,
mine oath-bound honor
will soar to the sunset horizon unknown
Facing chaff legions of the stubble unclean,
my left hand razor companion
shall cleave a clean path for your regal entrance
Those who doggedly oppose
your divine sovereignty
must glittering see
your two-edge blade reflected face on knees bent
My heart do willingly bleed for you,
as it bled for warrior her
You’re my fate ascended lady lord liege,
and ere forthwith
I fire forge this bosom pledge of fidelity
Please, confer upon my armored shoulders,
your tender, beknighted touch of Pleiades bravery
Commend my soul to the righteous cause ...
to that sacrosanct place
In the hallowed wake,
where all unworthy kingdoms surely fall
You vow royally to plead for me,
unmoved by fear ...
upon your grace established throne
The fleshly rite of authority
has been firmament blessed passed on
My former queen died so peacefully,
as old age smote her
with the common curse of mortality
May my tombstone stand guard
before my two beloved queens
The living and the quick,
both wore the blood root ring
As well-placed faith
in the revival of the dead
shall anoint to me
an Infinity kingdom double blessing
Fitly given upon
my upraised bowed head
