The emperor's new clothes.
And did he commemorate
Otiose advancements
To attributes that exist not?
Did the boat in the field
Find a new river to lay sail in?
Perceptions in circumstances changed,
Did the jouska of grandiosity
Play in his head anymore?
A sod bartered for an ounce of soul,
As he stands naked in a crowd
That applauds the emperors new clothes,
While the tailors who swindled King Nothing,
Lie in silent wake
For one blind follower
To oppose the system.
