Forgoing Temperance

Sprawled upon a makeshift throne of crimson silk,

An Emperor with a tempered yet twisted smile.

.

In the wake of forgoing temperance,

A shadow was cast upon his face;

a mask of phantoms

Right; a ruby gleaming of malicious intent

Left; imperial gold sharpened and polished of madness.

.

In the wake of forgoing temperance,

Let an Emperor indulge in you;

a temporary aphrodisiac fix

Submerging into the depths of simply

being

.

In the wake of forgoing temperance,

Embrace the delicious warmth of intoxication,

Not quite quenching this insatiable thirst for;

freedom

control

.

Let me see you, Veteran King.

.

In the wake of forgoing temperance,

A King falls prey to the

Whispered nothingness of sinful lips;

Enticing promises of victories,

Fulfillment of to the iciness of the heart

.

Bowed low on your knees.

.

In the wake of forgoing temperance,

In all irony, there was no escaping the;

clamp of steel clasped around the neck

chains encircling the wrists

a dunce crown hanging low from the brow

.

In the wake of forgoing temperance,

Worshiping your Emperor.
