A Cocky Swede

 

I'm the King,
I'm the Master
I love no one but myself
Loudest is my laughter
I'm the only one
on my shelf.

 


Where hurricanes
are daily
that's where I rule
The volcanoes
respect me highly
my integrity is cruel

 

I turn joy into disaster
I rip beauty
with my hook

 


 

Lightning cannot strike faster
than where I
set my foot

 

My goal is to scandalize
anything but
my name
I anticipate to vandalize
eternity, accepting every blame

 

as well as persist
my words as eloquent as Shakespeare
denying, abjure, resist that I'll never be shaken by fear
