Untitled [What King Should Be Revered]

What king should be revered!

Patchwork grins on that park bench,

A dolman to his liking.

He, clad in tattered robes

Of indigo and deep purple and

Crown donned with shining thorns,

Is worshipped by clean cheeks,

And passersby send

gifts of averted eyes.

  1. This is my favorite so far. The gifts of averted eyes line gave me goose-bumps. I'll have to check out 2009 soon.
