Threads: Emperor Of The South

 

“I am Emperor of the South.”

He drags his tattered dreams along in faded glory. A king in one land, a pauper in another. What does anything mean?


His wrath was seething.

“Jesus come to save. I come to see you die - which is why I give you your head in what you do.”


As his words soak in I began to chuckle. He appreciates we share this private joke.


But though knowledge is power, his silent insight is lost in the world. Before leaving he murmurs in trust:


“This magic feeling…nowhere to go…”
