The Manor of Lords

The underworld...what rules
Dark and haunted...these lands
Beings of the supernatural...gods or kings
House holds held in trust...landlords

Pools of darkness...to swim here
Abounding all around...one's aware of danger
Walls stretch past...the depths
To what end...no one play's

The yards guarded...no noise heard
Against the  outside...sounds lie
The manor of lords...keeping watch
What beast walk's...for the unknown
