Deference



Through the dark tunnels of her labyrinth
I trudge, draggind my
sack over the flagstones.

Then I reach her.

She's on her throne, leering, bloated as a leech.

Kneeling, I offer the sack where
I've laid the very last shreds of
my dignity,

'My lady,' I whisper
breathlessly,
'Your dinner.'
