unicorn, I be

For I be this lonely unicorn,

Trotting slowly forward,

I look up,  and see nothing, 

So I look down in comfort.

I have embodied everything that is nice in the world,

Yet I feel incomplete.

I look and look for the rainbow, 

But all I find is cold thunder,

Shuddering me back into myself.

‘I’m ready for the world now!’, I shout,

But I know I’m too late.

The horn I possess is worthless now,

I leave it to fate.
