Fate gave me six days warning
Mom had thought you lost already
But of course you weren’t
Such sickly irony
You were just out
Where last you’d ever be
And in those last days
What such happened
But the same as ever fore
Yet what such ghastly dreams of you
Shall forever in mind creep
Of that last time I saw you
So rigid and so weak
And so it is I buried you
Hardly changed from then
Returned you to the earth
Not but skeleton so thin
Your lion’s mane reminding me
Of those times I was a kid
You take with you an era
A childhood come to end
I’ll remember you
My king
My friend
