Tales of a Shattered Monocle

Home is where the hat stand lives 

Where the brandy toils and the fire spits 

Where your dreams are shared with a slobbering dog

Outside where the werewolves roam and whips crack on brittle bone 

Filling their carts yet never to the brim 

Know your castle is perched away from smiles hidden within the dirt
