Macbeth

Small

And so warm, so pungent of breath

Beginning behind shadowed eyes

Slithering back to a grave, cold death

From whence a little man came

Wherein the mightiest mouse might feast

Upon a corpse made of valiant gold

A curse was set upon

That little man so old

To the slightest proclamation

One might lend a pitiful ear

But for the cursed wretch that sets upon the throne

He shall forever live in a sea of fear

I just read Shakespeares Macbeth, and I was thinking about this poem for weeks. Finally got around to writing it.
