THE ICE KING
He moves amongst the cheering crowd
Towards a hilltop
With a crown of pain on his head
And stands tall and proud
In the spring sun
As he drags his tank
They lay him down on the ground
Legs together
Arms to the side
He has to obey his father
And do as he commands
To redeem
They inject his wrists
To make him go to sleep
In a painless fashion
Because he loves his father
He must follow his orders
And die for now
Here lies the eternal king
Who froze to save the mortal man
It’s written by his tank
Forgive me father, he says
I give my soul to infinity
And my body to cryonics
