The commander and thieves have erroneous beliefs.
As lies and deceit tumbled from forked tongues,
diversions passed as the gospel scroll unchallenged.
That's right, you did fall in line or else !
You do not dare question the King.
Mired in scandal,corruption,and greed,you had not even the time of day for the ordinary man.
Oh yes, and the Fox was in the hen house.
Just more fable from the money table.
They pathetically ignored the poverty as it drowned in murky moat water.
Black clouds gathering, blotting out any rays of hope and common sense.
As the mountains crashed,they kept the family safe ?
Out was in, down was up,and black was white (I mean green). They plucked every feather off their bird, till it could fly no more to soar.
None the less,
God Bless The Gladiators.
and PLEASE Bring in the Queen.

Paul....political satire? or whimsical fancy? a bit of both woven here to entertain and intrigue! I have to read it again.
