the focus

the king sits on his throne
and i at his feet
i look to his eyes
yet deep he sleeps

questions i have
he gives no answer
requests that i give
he does not fill

i tug on his robe
he does not stir
i sit, and think
listening for his voice

silence but a few snores
the quieter i get
the louder the noise
until i realize

the king does not slumber
it is i.
