was there ever anything here
was there not a city
a city ruled over
by an addled king
whose throne of broken dreams
and empty promises
who liars throne
upon which the one
who said they would always be here
no longer exists
as everything has a beginning
everything has an end
the world is always ending
the world is always being reborn
maybe one day
year
decade
century
millennia
the addled king will return
but know it now
today
is not
that day
