King
Real Aleing
Life plain sailing
Priorities failing
Off spring need saving
But a king does
Not have the inclination
To get involved
He’s Too busy losing
Control
Getting his fill
Of the good life
Practicing his skill
In golf
And shot drinking
And football chanting
And petty conversation
That may save the nation
But don’t put your faith in
The King
The king of disappointment
Of absence
Of straightforward
Uncompromising
Self obsession
With no expression
More brutal than violence
It’s An empty reign
Plagued by
Emotional silence
