NO LADY IN THE LAKE
.
.
The knight, imbued with chivalry
Went off to slay the dragon
He pinned a rose favor to his breast
Drank courage from a flagon
.
.
He went through every trial and test
Spent every coin of treasure
Suffered bleak and endless days
Not seeking wealth or pleasure
.
.
Only when his substance was spent
His spirit finally broken
He saw the rose was cheap and fake
A trite and useless token
.
.
Beware, all ye noble Knights
Before venturing forth on a quest
You may not want the worthless prize
Though you nobly passed each test
.
