The Spigot

Underneath it all,
Lies the Spigot, the Plaid One –
Who knows where He lives

The one who leers, He;
Is the one who will lead them –
Ants from the Spigot

The Plaid One will guard,
The Spigot until the Reach
Come in from Géløüzh

The Plaid One and He
Fight for the Spigot, to free,
The Ants, the oppressed

“I take the Spigot
At dawn, when the Ants march
To Géløüzh,” He cries

But even as the Dawn,
Breaks, the Ants go to Géløüzh,
To replace the Reach

“It’s time for the Ants,
And the Reach must go, or you
Suffer the Plaid One”

But only the Reach
Would disobey the Plaid One –
For he is their Son

But the Reach will not
Come to the Spigot while He
Fights the Reach, Géløüzh

There is always hope,
For He to beat the Plaid One;
When the Ants are gone

Now he goes to the
Spigot to face the Plaid One –
It is the First Front

The Ants and the Reach
Are fighting in Géløüzh for
Power over He

And the Ants will win,
As long as the Front goes on
Which it always will

Because the Plaid One
Is praying up to the Reach –
And they will call back

The Plaid One will pray,
Tossing grapes off the Spigot –
For when will He come

Only the Ants can stop
The Plaid One stopping them, He –
By stopping the Reach

But just as He said,
“Only the reach of the Reach
Can stop the Spigot”
