Dark Times [Poem] by Mourne (critique requested)

Dark Times

When days are red,
And nights are blue,
And reluctant axes march forth to hew,

Beware the many,
Trust but a few,
Guard well the treasure I gave to you.

When the seeing are led,
And the false are true,
And everyone's souls take an angry hue,

Remember me,
Remember you,
Remember what you swore you'd do.

Dark Times [Poem] (critique requested)

Mourne

I don't know how long this little scrap had been mouldering on my hard-drive. Just another example of further messing around with silly rhyming schemes.

    This would be right at home in an epic fantasy story. Each stanza would make a lovely chapter or section heading. ^^
