King

I’m the king of a land without ground
A prodigy of the unpractical
Anything of the utmost sound
And all of the arts radical
I’m the prince of ethereal stature
A god of two dimensions
Anything written on tablature
And all that goes unmentioned

I’ve mastered what matters least
And so I seem deficient
But to slay an abstract beast
My weapon’s most efficient
Force can stop the heart
But music can change the beat
Flesh can burn apart
But pride can take the heat

I may look like me and feel like me
And appear how I’m defined
But there’s a world that you don’t see
A world inside my mind

      Thank you! I'll look more into how I would be able to write it as a sonnet
