A king who does not behead
his subjects for voicing opinions
hands out lozenges to suck on.
Every day they wake headless,
empty necks see the naked king
on a carousel of donkeys.
What a dream to live in
where greatness learns to settle in.

A poem of the absurd becomes metaphoric in its wisdom. Nicely written
