Day of the Mage (part 1)

Day of the Mage
(part 1)

freshness seeps in
stale air mixed with new
living souls boxed him up
the conjurer had no clue

windows are opened
the dust gets stirred
he has been in waiting
now a human is lured

artificial light shining
dark corners swept
unsure of the unknown
ignorant of a trapped adept

royal blood once reigned
archaic era now past
practicing in his mind
the spells he will cast

locked in his prison
away for all time
old tome is the key
a pardon of the crime

curiosity soon appears
takes the book from its shelf
holds in his clumsy hands
a world of peril for himself

something is mumbled
next a stunning light
completely dumbfounded
it is such an awesome sight

out of nowhere he came
with revenge in his eyes
the spell triggered quickly
a mortal is hypnotized
