KNIGHT DREAMS

King Arthur was wiser,

More understanding

And very bright.

Lancelot was young and

Full of himself, but at least

He was a knight.

They came after dark

Into my room

No longer able to wait. 

“Come with us,

Join our ranks.  You’ll

Meet a noble fate.”

Find me a horse and

Shiny armor,

Even if on loan.

What I wouldn’t give

To save someone’s life,

Maybe my own.
