The early morning castle stirred

The King of the forest stared vacantly

Toward the east

His bloodshot eyes caught no reasoning

A lazy fly landed on his suit of velvet

And he cursed the creator

Like an unwanted shadow

The Queen of conscience

Entered the already broken morning

She spoke Eat my master

The king moved to a coffin corner

Where another lazy fly

Contemplated the dust of time

Bring me a kingdom and I will eat

His voice disturbed the dust and the fly

I am without power to bring you power

The Queen sighed like an autumn breeze

Then I will not eat

The King moved to his guilty throne

And seated himself among his ancestors

My King

If you want a kingdom and power

If you want money and love

If you want respect and admitation

Then you must go out

And you must take it

The King stared vacantly to the east

And a dozen flies waiting in the dust

Stared back

I am the King it is not my part

To capture and claim

It is my people's duty

The Queen cried

And the little crystal tears tickled her cheeks

She brushed them away angrily

You have no people

And while you remain the ghost of the past

You will never have people or a kingdom

She ran from the patchetic chamber

A fly left with him

The king breathed and though deeply

I will have people

He said nervously to his conscience

I will have people

The King of the forest never rose again

From his guilty throne

And the dust and the lazy flies lived on him

And the King lived on his dreams

And died on them
