Poem 9 - Do you know who the minstrel is?

375 13 7
                                    

  Inspired by the song "Bohemian Rhapsody". Yeah, IKR.

"Is this the real life,

     or just a fantasy?

Human care and strife;

     why must I live sadly?"

He, who killed his friend,

     was him who'd sung this ode.

For his soul to mend,

     he walks with heavy load.

With a heavy heart,

     he now relinquishes

Things held in regard:

     Health, love, and happiness.

Never did he dream

     to commit such an act.

Foolish -- it will seem,

     but none could change the fact.

"Cain and Abel;

Such a sorrowful tale."

So sings this minstrel

Who hides within a veil.

Do you know who the minstrel is?
