Chapter #23 : Kings & peasants

When 99% of the peasants,
look up upon the 1% of kings,
they see awe, glory, jealousy,
and a never ending climb.

Yet when the 1% of kings,
look upon a mirror,
they see pain, and the cost of the throne,

for even when there's no ladder to climb,

there's always the chance to fall.

And occasionally,

when the 1% of kings,

looks down from their thrones,

they do not see the 99% of peasants.

Instead, they see the millions of corpses,

they unknowingly trampled upon.

But maybe, even the 1% of kings,

is but an illusion, created by the peasants,

forever wanting more.
