An Ode to the King

Hark! The Mad King comes but once a year,
To fill your hearts and minds with fear,
For those who listen the rewards you'll reap,
Pay forth no homage, and ye shall sleep.

The Mad King's trick outweigh his treat,
A supreme general that can't be beat,
He'll test your wits to keep them keen,
That Mad King is oh so mean.

But now he's returned to his throne,
High atop a seat of bone,
So do not shed a single tear,
He'll be back again next year.

Mad King Thorn loves to thrill,
And your blood next year he'll spill,
So listen to my axiom words,
Get out of town you little turds!

Isn't this copypasta from one of the poems they did a couple years ago? Sure looks familiar...

No. Not at all.

I suggest ANet uses this for next year's poem though. It's a lot better then:

A petulant lord
Belligerently bemoans
And sobbingly roams.

Helpless ornate shriek
And serenely giggling knives
You'll laugh for your lives!

Glumly impatient
Smiling with menacing grace
Maniacal face.

But madness goes with not making sense.

10/10 on the poem.
