I am a KingA Poem by Kenneth Stephen GoodpasterThe observing eyes of celestial's Constantly noting my dark endeavors, Inputting my thoughts lacking rationales. Their abundance of silver-white feathers. Oh, they lack desire to harm, Just to be the maker’s eyes and ears, But I am not fooled by careful false charm, Their innermost agendas bring me fears. I must shield my thoughts and hide my actions, Or at least until their plot I unearth. Simple means to deter uneasy reactions, Hushing those with scales to measure soul’s worth. The ethical merit may be lacking, But they treasure the red thoughts of a king.
