Two Queens in a Kingdom


as if one queen was not enough
two queens might cause a furry
when all the surfs and ne’re-do-wells
         gathered to ponder
         the conundrum

a king sits on his throne unaware of havoc
counting his jewels and gold as he sighs
nary a thought about other matters
         the with outs and
         the have-nots, in their flurry

how might two queens appear you ask
when only one king sits and indulges
in all his mighty kingdom far and wide
         while others distraught
         huddle, some cry

the storms do come, they ravage they tear
homes once shelters now in despair
the surfs adrift in the torrents of rain
         the queens, gather
         the king, feasts with no matter

when was there such tremendous upheaval
in balance and logos in God’s kingdom
where once a united whole as intended
         now torn, in ruin
         one king, two queens
