 ramblings and things

He got a Degree in Pomposity
With a Masters in Self Promotion
Skilfully fanned the flames to
Cause chaos and Commotion
And he rose through thr ranks
Carving knife held in hand
To become the Leader of
The Back Stabbing Band
He blustered and he bullied
And he lied and he cheated
Until the Forces of Decency
Were thoroughly defeated
He became Chief Executive
At the very first attempt
To treat the common folk
With derision and contempt.
For he’d very quickly learned
He could survive on his own
So long as he threw the pack
The occasional juicy bone
For as every owner learns you can
Kick your beast into a docile jelly
So long as once in awhile
You pause and scratch its belly.

But amazingly by sn act 

So very seldom seen

He even got away with

Deceiving  the Queen.
It reads like a fair story but

That’s truly how it came to pass
He achieved such domination
Of the gullible lower class.
