Know Ye Not

Know ye not from whence I come?
That deep dark pit that beckons some?
Those within be blind and numb.
Touch not the gate lest ye succumb.

Know ye not my purpose here?
My dark intentions grow severe.
The ending of our game is near.
Those of your blood I bathe in fear.

Know ye not your master's call?
The bargain struck brings the fall.
A deal is a deal after all,
and I have come to reap it all.

Know ye not the smoke ye see?
Tis your burning family tree.
And when ye beg a drink of me,
your mother's tears will i give ye.
