Ring of Power

A skillfully woven web
Clings fast from hidden dower
To those whose hand would wear
The frozen ring of power
Past through time lost and found
Instilled in strong heart and faint
Even those of sound will
bear on their souls
The powers terrible taint
A fool you may well say
Of she that don it's evil curse
Though fleet of tongue and devious
All its strength comes out our purse
Forged in the flaming bowels of hatred
And poured in hot deceit
Engraved by the teaching guilds
Polished on the alter
At a tyrants feet

The rings corruption vibrates
Far and wide
Aback we are dumbfounded
In self created razor-wire
We blindly mill surrounded
As thought police patrol
Every buildings gate
Misery merchants set out
Their poisonous bait
Bringing to near perfection
The pathology of projection
For the dark minions march
To kill Man's heroic mind
