Under the Countenance

The King of grand locutions

Sat in his royal nook

Portraying noble ’so-to-speak’

Festooned within a stately book

A coterie of gilded edicts

With mastery of prose

Such crowning glory majesty

Denied all servants interpose

Among his executions

So many hung on every word

Exiled in the sovereign waste

For taking flight at the absurd
