Disclaimer: As much as I wish I did, I cannot honestly claim any rights to Star Trek XI. I really want Kirk's chair, though.

It is a lovely chair.
Sleek white curves
Thin black cushions
It was not designed for comfort (although that comes as a side effect)
But authority.
An object of power,
He seats himself and forgets
That he has been disgraced
That by all rights, he shouldn't even see this chair
He sits and feels (remembers?) power
It doesn't flood him but gently swells
And ebbs against his heart
He settles and looks out
Everything seems to fall into place
But only for a moment
The timing isn't right
And he gets reprimanded by a simple
"Out of the chair."
For the moment, he obeys.
