Emperor Poem by Petra Novakova

The child with the keys to the Ivory Tower
Pure of heart, the chosen one speaks to all
In a strong voice that carries over the land
Sending a message of hope to the people

The child with the keys to the Ivory Tower
Now and forever faithful, loyal to the bone
In a gesture of good-will gives away secrets
Damning traitors to the will of the people

The child with the keys to the Ivory Tower
Graceful in movement and noble in thought
In a slow-motion sits on the golden throne
Dreaming of having power over the people

The child with the keys to the Ivory Tower
Experienced in the art of imaginative power
In a way that belies age, the chosen one lies
Subjecting all to the whims of the people
