adam rides a black horse
rearing up against a red sunset
as eve offers an almond cookie
to the s—————— ambassador
seated comfortably in the green armchair
so beloved by the old king
meanwhile the surly servant girl
hired that morning at the inn on the road to the castle
waits impatiently in the courtyard
as darkness falls
how far they have come!
how far they have yet to go
the ambassador brushes away a crumb
as eve begins her apologies
everyone and everything is ready
except for the ambassador
seated comfortably in the green armchair
so beloved by the old king
