Had my will been stronger and also my faith,

I would not have been injured by that wraith,

Nor would I be the only one to saith,

A few words Sam considered Haieth.


Gollum when he fell into the lava was quite gaunt,

And his face of agony will forever haunt,

My dreams not what I some would want.

Now I write my tale, in Hobbit font.


Perhaps it could have turned out worse,

Perhaps now Sauron would make us immerse,

In pain and suffering in an imminent curse.

I would not have argued with Sam, nor been terse,

But then would have been dead instead, not to disperse.
