The Heir Apparent Part I

It summons all to pledge their devotion
Tainting the world that it wishes to rule  
Decreeing the right to lead its dominion  
Conquering the soul of the hesitant fool  
 
Poised, coiled, resigned and composed  
Enduring, waiting, tempered and ready  
It soaks in the thrill, fond of the deathly  
As fate oversees what shall be imposed  
 
A seductive appeal taunts a bare spirit  
Indulging in trances, refusing to inhibit  
Soothing caresses to shadow the blind  
Singing the praises of pleasures divine  
 
A vile captor summons a shallow grave  
One that dims the sky, tames the brave  
Black dreams reign, feeble hearts crave    
Behold the downfall of the misled slave
