Who Needs a White Knight When You’re the Dragon?

So I will set fire 
to the castle, 
and paint 
the parapets 
in flame. 
Moats will dry 
to dust 
in the inferno, 
and the knight, 
once white, 
will be black 
with soot. 
I will reclaim 
the treasures 
that were stolen 
from me, 
with brimstone 
in my voice 
and scales- 
once more- 
across my chest. 
The day of revival 
and reckoning 
has come.
