Kings Court

This is but one sorted
tale of a jolly island
king known as Greed

Hordes of the unsavory
sort travel from near
and far

Descending upon the tiny
kingdom by land and
twice as many by sea

Seeking hidden treasure
of his majesties famed
imperial house

Oh for King Greed this
was the end to his ultimate
joke

There was no gold or silver,
nor diamonds or pearls

Only this strange little
kings kangaroo court

For a smile and laugh is worth
far more in this kings court
