The King
January 30, 2014
Pounding, crushing, crashing, and shaking
Truculent boulders gliding by
Bashing, flying, rushing, and killing
Furtive arrows cover the sky
Gasping, collapsing, seeking, and mourning
Immured beasts trapped by debris
Nothing, something, everything, and anything
Pallid faced women sobbing solemnly
Propitiating, begging, praying, and negotiating
Prisoners of war asking for their lives
Bleeding, forming, scurrying, and commanding
The General leads to imply
Relegating, commending, segregating, and humiliating
The King sits and watches.
