Humming softly the sacred blues
Of yesterday's tomorrow

You chose to be a knight-errant,
Soon became a...

Hiccups 

An involuntary spasm 
of the diaphragm 
and respiratory organs, 
with a sudden closure 
of the glottis 
and a characteristic 
sound like that of a cough.

lest one cursed

One Place

Hell.

You're cracking me up, brah
You're my beloved friend flaw

Was coming to an end
He'd felt the shadow 
Of it
