Upon this throne
I ask for nothing
I was born here
Chained to it.

It is not like this:
I command thee
I rule over thee.
It is more like this:
Here I am plastered
For all to see
As the piranhas
Swarm at my feet.

Upon this throne
I wish to be left alone.
I have two feet of my own,
But they nip at my toes.
