THE KNIGHT OF DARKNESS

The black steed upon which astride

Rode the ghoulish knight of chaos

Clattered like chariots of desert fires

Amidst spell of the frosty tide

Dead solemn silence descended

As he alighted by Eve’s kingdom

Breathing outrage of doom

For men were all drugged

The rest lost in lust or slain

Mothers murdering in wombs

Of humanities refuge fortress

In alliance with a wealth of pain

Yet, there stood another warrior

The last woman heavy with child

She had neither sword nor shield

But the light was her might and valor

And the child was man

The prey of darkness terror knight

Hence he loomed through the night

As he slept in the woman

But her heart was strong and brave

That light rose therein in prowess

Shattering the cleavages of darkness
