poem to a king
is it lonely or busy?
to have so many people protecting you
walled into a sanctuary
you wish for others to see you
yet you don't wish to be seen
you want protection
from divine intervention
do you believe in all the things around you?
you must
because you are king

i smelt the smoke that dongQ smoked
