Thoughts of Aerys

Taste the shuddering exclamation
See the hovering decimation
Hear the loving dedication
O Lord!
the scarlet Temple desecrated
it is burning!
The sweet priestess Defiled
she is sobbing
the crows, oh!, they be circling
our infected nest

For I have spoken with Truth
and she scared me.

I have seen the light
and it burned so bright
It blinded me
It hurt me
on the inside

I have felt the night
felt the darkness that creeps
As I sleep
It helps me
to dream

I have seen the grey dawn
foreseen it, perchance
it was false
I found
yes, I found it false

I lay back and
I think thoughts of aerys
