Into the Darkness
 
Cruelly seduced by the night,
into darkness my mind took flight,
through sooty clouds, away on high
where only angels heard me cry.

My thoughts did spill from poets pen,
dripping blood, black as ink, and then,
leaving streams and deepening pools
of despair where the black queen rules.

I ascended to that vaulted realm so cold,
where poets grow mad, but never old,
spinning verses from sable fleece,
and weaving sagas which never cease.
