King's epitaph

The house become smaller and smaller.
It shrinks day after day.
Soon, it will be nothing more but a little box, barely visible, barely audible, ready to go down into the void.

(one time)

Anyway, I don’t care, I only live in the basement, in the office.
I got the sofa, two bolts on the door, stuffs to stay the distance in the drawers, so before the other places contract I have so room to manoeuvre.
I have my best days ahead of me.

(one time)

When I got scared, it was for the dog.
He didn’t skrank.
I feared that he end up by breaking the house and finding myself outside.

(one time)

Anyhow, the dog is dead since thirty thousand five hundred and six cigarettes.
In the end, everything is all right.

(one time)

Honestly, outside... no thanks.
Outside there are eyes examining you from everywhere, from every angle.
And from above, always.
I know it, I just read it on a website this morning.
But I got the trick, I’m not conned.
The king cannot being check if he remains behind the rook.
They won’t get me, I’m not going out.

(one time)

Though the compensation is that everything is shrinking before my very eyes.
Everything is reducing, decreasing, toughening.
But it could be worse.
Everything but the check to the king.

(one time)

Besides, I’m saving the funeral service’s fee, I’m going to simply disappear !
Free !
Steal !
Not a single coin to those grasping !
Of course, there’s no one to tell me it’s smart, no !
When it’s about scraping me, there’s a lot of people !
Well they’ll see the stroke of genius !
Ah !
I’ll have a made to measure coffin.
My house, my battlefield, my gravestone.
I’m a hero.
