The Ancient Master

The Ancient Master

Beyond the moat and locked door

In the castle of ancient lore

Lies a secret from times past

One night there might be your last.

 

The Ancient Master lives there

Safe and secret in his lair

His life is other’s pain

Undead master is living’s bain.

 

Wolves, bats and fog he calls

With each whistle a foe falls

A simple glance from him can kill

Every battle gives him a thrill.

 

Only the sun takes his power

Thus he waits patiently each hour

At sunset his power return

And the will of fire burns.

 

If you have to face his wrath

Don’t at night cross his path

Face him in light when he is weak

Or he’ll leave your soul meek.

This is very intriguing. A well spun web of scaricity. Write on.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
