75 Word Flash Fiction contest entry
The Peasant Bethany
by DragonSkulls
The king so rudely cast aside,
with ties he claimed were done,
the daughter birthed by his own Queen,
for Beth was not a son.
She fought a life so harsh and fierce,
a peasant raised in dirt.
But forged in time an army vast
through strength that she'd exert.
Then came the day her men drew swords
and charged the kingdom's throne.
And on her father's lifeless corpse,
she claimed the crown her own.
