Prelude
Because I was born in a kingdom
We also had a queen
What one had, the other had to have too
Learning to hunt in the new empire
When strangers massed at the borders
Afterwards, I always slept
In the court at night
One day a merchant brought moving pictures
And our queen, that hidden self
On Sundays
Do I have anything left to add?
