Once there was a king; A king who was much too rich for his own good.

This king was so sure that there wont come a day he'll see no food.


Swallowed by this arrogance, did this king bid,

Little by little all his wealth had gotten rid.


All of this loss had made the King lose his sense,

So much so that his falling mental health made all the authorities tense.


Owning to the growing pressure did this king had to step down the throne.

All of these events struck him and damaged him like thorns.


Once rich big king, is now a poor mere being, 

Used to live in luxury and now left to make his own living.


This sad king couldn't take the blow of his sudden downfall.

Sadly it ended up taking his life much like a disconnected phone call.
