Queen
I am the queen of the dense green forest;
That forest where all blooms green;
That forest in which
The stalkers of the night prowl with a menacing snarl.
The queen has little power over her kingdom
FOR WHAT SHE WANTS DONE.
For parts will rebel against each other
With battles imminent
In the cold, bleak future.
Yet --
Can there not be sunshine
Even hidden in the clouds of despair?
Verily, changed in all shapes and forms
We take few, leave few
FOR WHAT WE HAVE TO DO.
I go back now to the starting of the track
And watch the train drive by
With nothing but a plume of smoke
- so innocent smoke that -
Left behind.
