Sonnet XX you are a magician of a strange faith.Sonnet XX by *Hersoftestsoul
observe: the fire, the tumult, the steam,
all cover you in an unholy wraith.
in your theatre, things are not as they seem.
so proudly the king of your own domain,
master of illusion and sleight of hand,
you've grown quite used to your unchallenged reign,
your castle, your honour, your vast Crown land.
but here, close upon you, a band of thieves
plots the end of your infinite wonder
they wait in furtive groups under the eaves.
your Crown Jewel may fall to filthy plunder.
so show me your magic, old snake-charmer:
cast your spells and I will cast my armour.
