Royal Conscience Poem by james watkin

Royal Conscience



Subjected to a ruler
Who's is my worn crown!
Of king's behestings, bejewelled
Prickliest pressed down.

Liberties that are granted
In age-old revolt
That storm wall, shake out litter
With its tax on salt

Are in themselves a terror
For to contemplate
Under one's own high window;
One's own tall gate.
