Steadfast
February 6, 2019
I awoke to sounds
of battle, down the hall.
Screams of pain echoing,
I could tell you fought
brilliantly.
You, my valiant knight.
Me, your devout devotee.
You said He was a traitor,
we rallied to the call.
The babe in your arms,
we fled the castle.
The dragon gave chase,
but we were the quicker.
The treasures were ours
to reap: Lawry’s, Saltines
and cable tv.
You look uncomfortable,
in your armor. You never
asked for this honor.
You notice me and return,
steadfast, to your post.
