Boromir at the Council of Elrond

Boromir at the Council of Elrond

Feb 15, 2021

Spake Boromir: “Why can’t we use the ring Against its maker, Sauron? Everything We know about The Ring urges its use For good! My lords, you cannot be obtuse To this advantage? Rings are but a tool: Used as the wielder wishes.” “You’re a fool,” Gandalf here interrupted. “The One Ring Is bent to evil only. By using The Ring, you but play into Sauron’s hands: To...

Perils vast And dangerous about Mordor are cast By Sauron: Minas Morgul, the Black Gate – All those who go to Mordor tempt their fate: They shall be taken, added to the slaves In bondage. He’s a fool who such things braves. Say he...

Balrog-Slayers

Oct 15, 2020

Song themes In this parody rewrite of Legends Never Die by Against the Current I chose to recount the deeds of notable balrog-slayers: Echthelion, Glorfindel, and of course, Gandalf. Legends Never Die is a superlative choice for such a subject: the original lyrics being directly aimed at characters “pursuing greatness” (‘League of...

My words enchain the feebled mind Of Théoden. Each day I find Dark counsels to promote despair. Creeping old age makes the King fare Much worse. Doting, decrepit fool! I hold the power. He’s a tool I wield to rule behind the throne. My final reward will atone For all the insults thrown at me By these boors of the Mark, that be Mine enemies. They Wormtongue name...
