A King And A Thief

Being misled by certainty is like confusing pessimistic despair for wisdom

Said the joker to the rectopath thief

Well its better the imperial abattoir he replied

Onslaught and plunder

Stains her thighs with murder

Brutal c-section is performed

The village is under siege

While royal mistress gives birth

Two biparous sons one is purged away

Deiparous emperor to be

The wizard vanishes

Absconds into the sea

Vicious steeds tread on

Feeble mass crawling

Everyone is dead

Accept the other twin

And the bleeding balatron

As they row to safety

Now a man, thy bellipotent ruler

Has scorn and contempt for his

Peasant brethren

He will stop at nothing till

His brother is dead

For robbing the coffers

And cursing the family name

Everyone around him must perish

Or he too is killed

Brothers destroy one another

Verbally tearing each other apart

Feel it in their blackened hearts

As they finally meet

Starving the peasent steals to eat

He is trapped and weak

Begging for forgiveness at thy brother's feet

I will spare your life at the gallows pole

My hate for you will soon unfold

The king and a thief are one and the same

One steals to eat and the other for gain

Crush your dreams, enforced pain

Inflicting their father's rage

Staring at their dying mother's face

In his brother's now dead eyes, tears seal their family ties...
