Disappointing Hero

With a rescue package that won’t pick up
Being steadily hit by a hiccup  
And prices jacking up
Should we still treat him like a hero 
Who has scored a shameful zero?

Still him obediently follow
And this taking to tomorrow?
Ourselves consoling with laughs hollow 
And him sparing a ripe bellow?
Or isn’t the disappointing Hero 
Some sort of Caesar Nero 

A name penned with common biro?
