TYRANNY

From the mass arose, a one of its kind--- Resolved to affect, the whole of mankind. A brain gifted to influence the lot. He owes to all, lives he bought. His legacy lies in clandestine veins, That rules lands, the inhuman terrains. Calculating minds surrender to him. Evil incarnate, he makes heads spin. Empathy not, revenge he seeks, Nature's curse, he promises peaks. Philanthropy a garb, to make up for all The sins he caused at ambition's call. He feeds on wealth, he feeds on fire He is love's craziest desire He makes his rules, owns them all Bitterness incarnate, he causes downfall.
