The Crimes Of A Diabolical Man

by @tesspattinson

He sits on his chair of unearned power Time caused his temper to spoil and grow sour; Faulting those lower in the hierarchy, He rests, contented in his monarchy; He wreaks havoc on anyone with dreams; Though his entity divides at the seams King of his castle, he sits unconcerned Playing with fire, about to be burned He has not learned: what goes up must come down Breathing in water, and soon he will drown He pushes others down to lift him up He is bitter and decaying closeup Written and read in a voice of deadpan: The crimes of a diabolical man
