See him astride himself, a hundred steeds,

the fearsome, gallant Gantus Calloway!

His courage surges with his frightful needs,

his arms atremble holding them at bay.

And while his many armored deeds are noted,

a lustrous, lacey soul within him sleeps,

its beauty somehow brighter when corroded

by the shameful company he keeps –

a diamond in a dragon hoard,

a greater hero serves a lesser Lord

and shields the innocent with his guilty sword.
