It was dark and merely quiet
The stars came out to say goodnight
I made camp one last time alone
To continue on at morning light
I barely slept a wink at all
Afraid of the beetles that crawl
I had sand burried into my eye
When I awoke to see the morning sky
I set off into the hills afar
In search of the temple of Scar
I imagined how this man would look
I arrived at the village and in I snook
There were men and women walking around
And snake charmers setting on the ground
People with their junky trinkets to buy
I heard a man bribe a woman with a lie
I stopped and stood at the rug cart
I asked the owner where I could find Scar
He told me where from finish to start
Then he mumbled "you'll never defeat Scar!"
I put my back to the blazing sun
Walking past a few blocks or two
Then I came to a well established temple
That was golden and painted blue
I went to the door and gave it a knock
Then out came a man with expensive clothes
A well cut beard that hung from his face
And golden rings on all of his toes
He gave me a snarl and glared at my face
Then he said "Traveler,who sent you to my place?"
It was the mighty ruler from the Arabic lands
I traveled far across these heated sands
He looked at my sword and then he laughed
"A duel I see?You must want the lamp of magic."
"It's just too bad you'll be dead when I'm through,
(laughing loudly) OH HOW TRAGIC!!!"
