arrest him

i tread upon the cold palace floor

blood drips from my back

annoying how it slips down my feet

the servants, they stare

and they bow in haste

bring out white towels

and try to wipe me dry

they fail

i walk

and i see him

donning a king's clothes

conversing with my right- hand men

i call out to the guards

" arrest him. "
