Balrog / Balrag (post 26)

there are those who wake the dragon

there are those who fight it

there are those who fear it

and there are those who become it

but,

 woe to those 

who 

summon 

it

without the fortitude 

to engage it

for their names shall be cast

into the sea

of 

God's 

forgetfulness

for their lack of courage

for their lust 

and ignorance of youth

for their inability to wield the sword of truth

fire shall consume them, 

if guilt does not do the job first, 

in stealth

and steeped

in 

obscene amounts of

wealth

and 

a

sickening 

cursed

narcissist's 

love 

of 

self. 

Indelible 

lipstick

on poison 

mouths

of 

swine

and

covered 

in

their

own

filth.
