Delusions of grandeur

 

 

The emperor in his new clothes,

Walking around buck naked

Parading his “crown jewels”,

Oblivious to his own vanity

 

Looking to be the king of the world,

When he is ridiculed by his own

Bullying the weak,

To plunder their wealth

 

No it is not Genghis Khan,

Not Napoleon either

Definitely not Hitler

But, you know who it is

 

The squint thinks the rest of us are blind

The people are aware but the leaders are feckless

Fully aware of the inane emperor

But not ready to call him out

 

His delusions of grandeur,

Is dismantling the peace

With the common man facing the daily wrath,

Can someone come forth and flush this orange turd away
