Oh here I sit all alone on my wibbly wobbly throne no jesters, no jokers, no serfs around no luck, no lady, no heart to be found The crown on my head weighs more than lead the heavy hem of my cloak makes little frogs croak Nothing but my own words to eat nothing to wear for my blistery feet nothing to brighten my miserable day nothing to do but sleep the night away And when daylight arrives as it must again to wake me from slumber I rub my weary eyes and wonder: when and why did my might turn to dust?

To me, this can be interpreted on different levels; I find it both delightful in the way it "flows" but also thought-awkening in depth of meaning expressed. Merci, Gigi. Love and best wishes,
