Sweeping the streets I used to own
When I
Eye am king
You will be first against the wall
Kneck in the nose
Head rolling around the guillotine
That was a lifetime ago
The fool spake
The emperor is naked on top a boy
Vultures pick the bones clean
Heavy is the head
that rules the ashes

Well, ya know...it's not the ashes so much that are important, but the new shoots, leaves and buds which come after 🤷♀️
It's all...just how it works.
