Curate, connect, and discover
I've sat upon this throne
For a century it feels
But I know
Not a decade has passed
It is velvet plush
And silken smooth
Crafted of sunbeam golds
And starshine silvers
The jewels that adorn it
Are precious and lovely
From the deepest blues
That remind me of oceans
And the empty gaze
Of a devout follower
Stained by ink and blood
The shine of peacock teal
The glimmer of amethyst violet
The spark of sunset topaz
Devotion and adoration
Swirl and coil in irises glazed
A whirlpool of desire
That drags me under
Drowning me in their affection
They've crowned me honor
Exalted me above all
Their touches are butterfly light
Their words dripping with honeydew
Their bodies for me to use
Their souls for me to savor
A title
A crown
So light upon my head
A responsibility
Utter trust and loyalty
Heavy upon my heart
"Absolute power corrupts absolutely"
I've heard it said a dozen times before
But here in this world
Paradisiacal as it is
I can't seem to care
I am their God
It's only right I take my due
