![]() Silk and PoliticsA Poem by Jofer Serapio![]() Just a little something I cooked up![]() Within walls of teal Hidden beneath endless seas Stories are one man's meal Each day, he's contented with one, Just one.
Everything at his fingertips Luxury without any catch Scarlet robes, satin sheets and chocolate dips He lives the life we all dream The life we can't all have.
He has knowledge like no other He was better than first class No problems, not a single bother Peace with one hand, praise with the right Both feet on sky high clouds.
His heart yearned for antics Adventure was beneath him Life isn't all good with just silk and politics His darkest secret was lust, Lust for conflict and chance.
Wretched is peace without war Gold, to him, was a plenty and common He wanted a storied scar Greener grass was always on the other Never are there gold pastures. © 2009 Jofer SerapioAuthor's Note
