Desolation's Harp

In your dream-spun kingdom the rains never cease

They transform your low roads into stagnant, murky shallows

Dotted by the odd limb of timber and unsinkable refuse

They keep your high roads in states of perpetual disuse

Camouflaged from sight by sodden overgrowths

Of sinewy briar and serpentine vine

Shielded in a musty refuge high atop your flood water mansion

You pluck your harp against the deathless echo of the driving rain

Humming a joyless mantra not a single soul can hear

In your dream-spun kingdom you seek a solace only the rains can lеnd

A deathless echo to drown out thе whispers of a fraying lucidity

A deathless echo to drown out the clamor of every tramp and knave

A deathless echo to drown out the sorrows of the barely living and the freshly dead

You'll forever pluck the strings of desolation's harp

Longing for a soul to share in your oblivion
