With the kingdom now stronger than ever
I venture out once again
The hot air balloon beyond the gates
now withering away and flapping in the wind
The fuel for his hot air engines spent
he finds no further source to replace his losses.
His only hope to refurnish the hot air in his skull
is for his rage to burn hotter.
As one last favor I untie his final tether
the only foundation he has ever known
and watch him spiral away
like a screeching madman
streaking over the deserted wasteland of hell.
I shed a single tear
It is always sad when the circus leaves town.
