A Pope And Hope

A Pope Brings forth hope But a kaiser Spews hate and horror A Pope Spreads peace In the north, south, west and east But a prideful mope like a squalid dope Spits horrors and terrors And starts fights and wars A peaceful person de-escalates But a belligerent bully booms, inflates And explodes like a lost missile Which acts like a cussed imbecile A real leader Never follows an oppressor Yet a follower is a master loser Who lies about everything Even when the sun is shining A Pope Offers love and hope But a loser displays no compassion No sympathy and no comprehension.
