Charm’d magic casements, opening on the foam
Of perilous seas, in faery lands forlorn

(John Keats)
Check your baggage at the door and bring some magic through your
window onto the world of Belariath

A formidable woman always dressed in red
Hate ran through her as her victims bled
Lived to have their fates twisted
Even the mighty resisted

What became of her no one knows
Her lovers were thrown to the pits of hell
Until one man came into her life
That man knew her weak spot
Everyone has one you know

Hate and rage fell on deaf ears
Instead a smile and touch was returned
How long could he keep her in that favored cage

Who knows

Remember that twist and turn of supple flesh
Is something that is always fresh
He laps her like sweet cream
Not realizing the hate he has yet to see

Some say the shrew is locked away
Off yonder beyond the cage
Cries of lust can’t be denied
He has spun her in his web
The shrew is no longer dressed in red

Flowers burst at her feet
A ritual of her defeat
Shrill cries when she sees marks of his crest
He has even marked her breasts
Such a lovely one in blue
No longer the town shrew

The quill is dropped to the scroll
Wicked lash of her whip slashed the poet’s hands
Blood splattered everywhere
They say she stole the poet’s soul

Again dressed in red
When she walked away
Leaving many men half dead
Make men flee from this ritualistic shrew
