The King and The Wild Man (Incomplete)

Who are you, spoke the wild man to the King,
That you may sit up there alone?
A King of Halls, A King of Words,
You rule but in your sleep.

Who are you, spoke King to wildman,
That you may speak as that, when you look to me a mouse?
You speak from dreams, good man,
Speak again and die.

I rule outside these halls, in hills,
The birds sing my name from mountains,
You may see this, if you went from your halls,
they are your hiding place.

I have no need to do these things,
For I have twelve hundred hands,
which speak to me of what I must hear,
and show what must be seen.
