There have been many
kings throughout history: great kings, weak kings, priest kings, god
kings, foolish kings and even wise kings.
None of them are so
special, however, as dead kings.
Poisoned, assassinated,
slaughtered, betrayed and deposed, dead kings, whether they die in
glorious battle and victory or suffer ignominious death via the
errant bolt of a soup-maker, become the stuff of legend.
I, too, am a king – a
dead king – crazed by exposure to the long dark of Anoikis and the
deep places. I am dead yet free of the thief which stole my sanity.
In time my mind will
recover. Perhaps with another clone; another rebirth.
Yes, I believe that's
the key.
'Once there was a
thief and the thief was God.'
- First line from
The Exodus Bible
