A Crown and a Lazy

A Crown And A Lazy


It is a country of fame and wealth
rains and sun blessed 
the land and with water and grains
the king of that land is lazy
and too lazy to swallow to his food
maidens and servants do all 
for the wages and for their life
no pains and worries to him,
up to the occurance of invassion 
he doesn't care about the enemy's arrival
he spent his hours with wine and women
the enemy entered and defeat his crown
put that lazy in to a cell with a chain
even in the last minute of punishment
his mouth stands closed
cause he felt difficult to open
the nem man sentenced the old,
to hang him for death
