Lady Dima Dreams and the Universe responds unfairly
She wished for Freedom, and It was given to her
The Queen, this royal title can inspire awe
and thoughts of immense wealth, a power raw
but in this dreary story, it lone means
a bride to a mad king that died, he left behind
a shattered widow forced to hide herself
from life's simplest enjoyments as the laws demand,
for she's to dwell in spacious hollow rooms alone
consoled solely by her lovely maiden
her windows cloaked the beauty of the gardens
O how she desired intensely to be free
from the age of ignorance and maddened devotees,
her spirit soared the walls, enraged of leisure
then she escaped to find in thrills a pleasure
a sour prisoner she was, a corpse to be
for she sneaks out each night and risks her life
to have some fun until a man came by
that worships not the sword nor gods, but her
he was her guilty pleasure, what ensued
is an ominous end for the book to tell
is she to end in Dante's second circle of hell?
or will the winds of change propel her to the gilded gates,
as reward for her restlesness?
