Emperor,
do not despise your rule.

to challenge your paternal will.

who, in turn, provides a sanctuary of
conformity for others that wish
to make their years go by

Their years go by before
belief systems topple;
years go by as bones whither into dust,
and years go by after all you know on
our pitiful earth have been long dead.
For no matter how many years go by,
