Welcome Mat Pitfall Trap

I painted you a masterpiece

Hues of sinew, veins, and bone,

And I placed it on the mantel

Just above your wooden throne.

Was your crown too heavy

To turn your mighty head?

Or… did you have no interest

In these colors I have bled?

This mosaic I have made for you

Lies dusty by your door,

And my thousand perfumed letters

Scattered, sealed, upon the floor…

My works have failed to please you-

Thus my muse abandoned me.

So I’ll throw these o’er the castle walls

For all the world to see.
