[Elfsea] bowing to the thrones

[Robert Fitzmorgan]

Long, long ago I heard a song.  I don't really remember much but how it
ended, something like:

As we walk n down the hallway,
past the door marked "MEN"
Sometimes the King sits there my friends
Do we have to start bowing then.

   I think it might have been a tape of Yang.
