a crown be sworn to an empty head
one that rests upon a dullard's brow
shine's the shallow depths of the dead
those who would not come to bow
a king of torture, to his own torture
and of dim light never to travel
who lives his suited role as the scorcher
of the lands along to know his gavel
a rule so blinded by the darkest of forms
that an insolent has clad that putrid robe
then might of power may stir up storms
to cast evil to the reaches of this globe
long live the king...

This is heartbreaking to read, such raw emotion in this verse. |
