Swandragons
Sometimes a man is the enemyof his own dreams.
He is the knight the queen hates.
The queen is beautiful
and the knight is beautiful.
But the queen is married to an old king
and the young knight is religious.
He will not walk with the queen
through the royal gardens.
He will not smile at the queen.
He will not go up to her tower.
The queen hates him and she plots his death
even now as he lies asleep dreaming
of swandragons,
dreaming of God in the
sword.
