He was selectedA
From among the finestB
Of all menC
To carry the loadsD
Of millions of fathersE

He got hundreds of millions of childrenF
With multitude personalitiesG
Some are in the right wingH
Others are in the left wingH
Still others are moderatesI

He holds great powerJ
Vested by the millionsK
He watches overJ
Yet his authority is clippedL
With checks and balancesM

He got noble intentionsK
Initiated reformsN
For the good of allO
Majority submitted to his powerJ
Others desperately wanted him goneP

He reached the fork in the roadQ
And he tightened his gripR
To his powerJ
Changed tacticsS
And ruled with an iron fistT
Cut the tongues of his childrenF
And broke their wingsU

He tastedA
The absolute freedom to ruleV
Like a wineW
He wanted moreX
Intoxicated by the desireJ
To be the first in everythingH
The one who has been told finestB
Has turned into a beastY
