Servant Gossip

• Artist: Wanderlust Dreamer
• Description: This poem can be interpreted in more ways than one. Yes, the main setting is medieval times, but it can also be applied to modern times as well. For the main part, it's the servant talk that goes around the kitchen. Either it's true or it's just plain entertainment to them, no one really knows save that it hurts the reputation of the royal family.
  
  Enjoy reading. :3

In the kitchen of certainty the voices milk,
Of phrases and words that are often spilt
The blackest of hearts will soon be exposed
To the pack, their words will be made unknown

The princess at hand has lost her sash
To a lad whose heart had she latched
This is a sin for she is to be wed
To a prince far across the land instead

But that is not all to be told, oh no
It seems like the queen’s voice is like a crow
For she has kissed the messenger sometime ago
Whose throat was ill and a sickness he freely bestowed

Laugh and giggle, but that’s not all to be told
The prince’s horse, it was sold
For a maiden never to be seen
Oh what ever could this ever mean?

The king is not guilty, but woe
Many heartstrings had he pulled
For who is to know the children is his or not
He will perform the same deeds; his wife could rot

Scandals, awaken
From your prisons, be shaken
Heads will soon be rolled
To smacking lips, this is your toll
