palace
my glass house is sitting
with a pile of stones next to it
up on a hill
so why did i have to lie
to the one person that mattered
where did i get the idea
i carried out
why did i burn the most fragile of us all
i sat up on my thrown
barking orders
and lashing out punishment
to those who did not fit
the sun baked my brain
and sizzled my heart
and killed me slowly
until i was gone
disappeared
disintegrated
