The Forever Tree

Two thousand years ago,
In the first century,
Horst, the Viking,
Sailed the Roman Sea
Where he found the
Strange Isle of Mystery,
The place of the Forever Tree
Whose medicinal sap
Makes you live all eternity
And Horst partook
Of the sap of the tree.

Horst is still alive today,
Imprisoned in life,
Bored and sick
Of his earthly stay,
Cursing the Isle of Mystery
And the sap
Of the Forever Tree.
