Kings of the Earth

Your life’s but a shadow he’s a king of the earth he’s secure in his place he knows his own worth. He‘s lacking all burdens his smile merits bliss by the King be commanded you’re deemed worthy young miss. The lady‘s so lucky, as a rose meant for plucking, this brawling, rough rogue, - this heir to earths throne, deems her worth the f—king. I chuckle demurely, “Be away drunken sir - leave me to my studies - go chase other skirts with your fraternity buddies.” . . boy, the weekend festivities seem to start Thursday afternoons on fraternity row.

I know this kind, my office is right next to SMU and fraternity row is a block away. You have captured the essence of these “kings” perfectly, Anais. Hope all is going well in your world. John
