The Monster Retsnom

The Dragon sleeps with gold
surrounding his walls and more.
Alone with treasures far greater
than any man has seen before.

The King, sitting on his throne,
with riches and peasants poor.
A touch of God placed at his feet
and yet his life remains a bore.

    Both have powers granted
    where pity has yet to bare,
    Fortune and Fate collided
    with a battle between the pair.

Dragons and Kings, the same.
Both be forgotten some day.
But their selfishness will remain
where the forgotten bodies lay.
