Oh KingA Poem by SherryI am not the kings concubine Though I plung his precious sword into my throat And fashion red dye for his white cloak
Didn't I dance so prettily Causing every fiber of your being to celebrate What you wold later bid to consummate
Oh king Oh king I sang your opera Oh king Oh king I danced just for you Yet in the end you betrayed me I alone seem to have lost everything
All men have their spheres of action Mine has fallen with no satisfaction Drifting I have nowhere to rest Beaten still I refuse to confess
Line me up oh king Shoot me down oh king I will take my punishment For it is the opera I have always loved And not king © 2008 SherryAuthor's Note
