Septuagenarian Rule
" WHAT THE OLD SEE SITTING,
THE YOUNG WON'T SEE STANDING."
GOES THE FAMED PROVERB PIECE.
THUS GIVING TYRANTS EASE.
SO AFRICAN LEADERS
WED POWER,INFLICTING SCARS-
FOR THEY BELIEVE TO KNOW
BETTER THAN OTHERS WHILE OLD.
SO GROWS SEPTUAGENARIACY
BECAUSE THE OLD
BELIEVE TO SEE
AND SEE SUPER-HUMANLY
WHILE INCREASING DEMOCRATIC MORTALITY.
"SO HEREIN LIE THE BONES
OF THE TYRANT WHO SO
MADE THE PROVERB FAMOUS
MAY HIS BONES BE AT PEACE AT MOST."
