Paper Kingdom

In my paper kingdom, words abound,
I reign as king without a crown,
I have no chalice, throne, or gown,
there's no adoring crowd around,

In my paper kingdom, words abound,
the lay of land is margined ground,
my fortress ruled and spiral-bound,
a moat of feathered ink surround,

In my paper kingdom, words abound, 
where bardic verses are profound,
when all I have are words to astound, 
my loudest cries go without sound.
