THE KING WHO ISN'T ONE

not a doctor, not a boss
just a king who isn't
not a solver when he's in chaos
the only one sans citizens

from his throne he sees life
unwrapping itself from the thickest of shrouds
way beyond the 9 to 5s
piercing through the highest clouds

he wishes upon a star
for happiness, for strength, for sanity
keeping himself under the radar
until the day he vanishes completely

he's a king who isn't
a shah but not a shah
he'll fade away through the seasons
like the sinful smokes of hookah
