Sacrificial Overkill.
Tanned groom, remains,
Leveled under-world,
Belly full, while his people starved;
Failed kingship, a triple edged sword.
Garroted with a willow noose,
Biceps pierced with Hazel withies,
Slashed, stabbed, blunt forces bashes,
Life crossed over, bronzed brackish waters
Three ways to kill a king,
To be sure, to be sure, to be sure.
