From the author: This is a piece of raffle fanfiction poetry I wrote for Brodsky the Redplague. I'm posting it here cause I thought it turned out decently, and I thought peeps might like to read it.
What goes there?
More idea than man?
A spectre in the night
Trailing shadows by day
With a footstep so light
-
The Red Plague they called him
So they said, once a time
Beard stained so red
With his fingers so fine
-
Hush now,
Or he will take you
So quiet in the night
His robe thick with blight
So shutter your windows
And hold yourself tight
-
Or so the tales said
-
The Red Plague will find you
His face a blank mask
Porcelain, white
Which hide the task
-
Of the red ruby eyes
Precious with shine
To capture your heart
Precious and mine
-
Yes, it is I, the Red Plague
Who sing you this song
Walk with me, here
Take my hand, come along
-
Soon you will know
The path of my Red Plague
The way of my mask
-
I speak of no burden
Only a task
We must take
For the strength of each other
-
For the strength of ourselves
So hold my hand now
Don’t linger
Don’t break
-
Follow me, follow
To the Keep we must go
And with the touch of death’s finger
-
We’ll walk to his door
Then beyond to the waking
So to open your eyes
-
The dream’s just abating
Of life, left behind
So my dear welcome, welcome
There is so much to know
