The Stone King
The Stone King
when the world—
falls on my head,
i may well be dead.
when the stone king—
fills my heart with lead,
i may well be dead.
but when i take the sun,
you know—
i am just so young.
all i want
is a little fun.
the stone king is old
a magical story –
that one day will be told
James Garratt – December 1992
