3 years and counting...

When will the King's aggression cease
To usher in his promised peace?
A new Crusades is soon begun
But never destined to be won.

He wraps himself in Regal power
To shield from the crimson shower
So he won't have to smell the death
His soldiers taste with every breath.

In his White castle, there enthroned
To wage his Evil war alone
And as his coffers' treasure grows
More of us toward death will go.

And I am fearful that my seed
Shall have to perish just for greed.
