King Of A Kingdom Poem by Mark Heathcote

Honourable - saviour to the needy
Enlightened; good deeds aplenty
King of a kingdom, lit with light…
How we've abandoned all that's right?

Ignoble demons, tax our plight…
Make demands we can't appetite.
Oh noble Lord, spearhead our fight,
Their eyes; greener than, jadeite.

Such, greed filters into shale gas…
They'll shake every penny from us alas…
If you don't kick, some royal arse.
Lord, deliver them their coup de grâce!
