Whisper’s Reign

Quarter Crazy Marathon 2021
Prompt 6

I see farther than you wished for me
Beyond the castle, beyond our hills
Beyond the safety of tall ash trees

I made my way beyond the seas
Where stars are made of stubborn wills
Where gods and monsters move with ease

You would not recognize me here
‘Twixt dandelions and daffodils
That, to your rules, do not adhere

Not they nor I can bear veneer
Such as you dream might yet appease
The monarchs, faith, and gods you fear

I lept from our world to the next
Shedding fear of maladies
Then, all came clear, what once had vexed

When trusting limits must be annexed
— Good gentlemen, gentle ladies:
I see my words are too complex
