The chance to kindle legends
Breathing life to histories page
Heroes, myths, and highway bandits
Exhuming, dare of long forgotten age
Unlocking parallels of conscious
Leaching mystic revelation
Drench tomorrow in uncertainty
Inciting nameless connotation
Heed, the pounding hooves and foam of stallions
As they echo through the street
The flaying capes and glinting spurs of highwaymen
The rich beseeching, mercy at their feet
Observe the predators of aristocracy
Seducing ladies by the tally
Dim candle softly scarring ebony
Through dank and treacherous ally
Swaggering brigands plunder
Toasting, return in taverns heady drape
God-fearing souls, seek demonic witches
From righteous rule there's no escape
Alchemists and wizards tutor magic
Enchanting all who spectacle their whim
Saints, the humble and unholy
Ponder mordant sin
Tingling tales of spectres
And possessive souls that burn
Rotting fruit and festering milk
Ciphering concern
An age away from plastic, fax
And thrilling soccer score
Bereft of mystery and darring-do
No more heroes anymore
