Oh, how they seduce Macbeth inside the bramble tomb.

The murder of Duncan,
the shrunken king,
Is prophesized to be
by the hand of
Macbeth.
The usurper’s rivals scorned,
Macbeth’s mind,
controlled by demons,
is destroyed.
Ambition flourishes from
inside his soul.
Mercilessness takes power as
witches draw savagery from within.
All sentiment gone,
Macbeth is numb.

Cue river of blood.
