King Polk

……Your highness if I ever knew one, a crown made visible once heard, with an over-standing that’s monstrous in scope, instilled in me abundant hope, like Ali against the ropes, taught to come out swinging with philosophical quotes, prestigious as the Pope, life’s struggles you could always cope, a proven architect and artist, you was always the smartest, could read for hours, but yet and still intellectual prowess was just one of your powers, a kind balanced heart in today’s world is almost seen as snobbish, how you kept your vision untainted, only god could explain it, sometimes I think your mind is, what ours was before slavery.
