Aug 2014
around the raging fire
there shall be a cheerful bash
as his huge empire
is burnt to a blackened ash

the wheel shall turn
he shall be completely wiped out
for he has treated some
with an unfair clout

his band of supporters
shall feel sympathy for him
yet in other quarters
there will only be contempt of him

laughter shall be heard
in every nook and cranny on the planet
as his ashes are lain
beneath a slab of granite

the mighty do fall
he is no exception
for his type of person
there is not an inkling of redemption

these words are uttered
in a temper of passion
as he never exhibited
any form of compassion

time nears for his kingdom
to be eaten by a blazing fire
it shall be a highly combustible
unquenchable fire

thy mind's eye
sees this scene play
there shall be an ending
to his realm's days
