I took a blue pill and landed in Elfland.
“Why didst you come?” the Elf King asked me.
I had no idea, so I remained silent.
“She is here to steal our riches,” A Nay elf suggested.
I knew this was not it, but my mind was fuzzy.
I threw out the blue pills after the elves returned me to my bed and my dream.

In solitary, True Thomas lies under Eldon tree
Then came Queen of Elf for a plea.
Her velvet and silk seduces the eyes at a glance.
Astonished Thomas thought he was in trance
"My Thomas, I came to thee not by accident
Thou shall travel with me to beautiful land of the ancient
And seven years shall thou spend in my luxurious land
Caressing my body with thy amorous hands"
They rode to immortality, leaving the world behind
With her horse that fly faster than the wind
My Thomas, she said, "I love and trust in thee,
Everything thou shall see shall remain in tongue of thee
Or thou shall thy home see not again
And forever serve my lustful gain"
Seven years of love and bliss past
Those years to Thomas seemed so fast
In the Elf paradise was a graceful garden
Where grown an apple of tongue of virgin
"My Thomas, take this apple for thy wages,
To thee it will bestow the tongue of ages
Thy poetic prophecies shall all come to be
And thou shall forever be in glee"
