Imprisoned by his own son.
For wasting public money on
Extravagant architecture..
Held captive in a cell facing
The Taj Mahal so that he could
Wither away to death
Contemplating his creation..
Did the White-Giant diminish
Into a hateful nothingness
Or it became a point of
His pride?
Swooned daily by it's
Magnificence. The beauty
Growing louder day by day
Till he himself became
The shadow of this very
Entity he commissioned.
Leaving historians with
The ultimate question of
Who's bigger?
The dream or dreamer.
