A trilogy is not enough, to speak of all this daring stuffNext Balladeer came swiftly Onto the field of woe It would be an act of butchery To win from this sorry foe He raised his mighty mace And swung toward the man It hit the air above the victim's face With a mighty clang The victim was perspiring In fear or sweat, who knew? But no thought of retiring Came from the sundered few The battle must continue Till one alone would stand Take his place in halls of blue Win the right to take command Balladeer moved deftly The victim was hard pressed To harry him came Kethry To prevent the victim rest Then Balladeer moved off the field At gesture from the throne The victim had refused to yield And stood there, frightened all alone The next round would be a contest With fresher warriors there The victim waited, stood the test But had nothing else to spare The crowd it roared in anger They wanted blood you see The emperor saw the danger He wanted easy victory But word was law, for such as he Could not rescind command Although the crowd could fretful, be Their lives were in his hand In horror, the victim sank down His loins were drenched with sweat The heaven's echoing his frown He had not won, not yet! to be continued... < !signature--> Religion is for people frightened about going to hell - Spirituality is for people who have been there.
