King Faces Change

A king walking with majesty,
Reflecting on their Dynasty:
A Legacy of Modesty;
Medals for shows of Honesty,
Quick grants to outlaws Amnesty
Zero case of Pederasty...

But now subjects eye Democracy,
On his brow glimpse Autocracy,
Prejudice now court;no mercy
Their hunger for change so racy 
Either they or change is crazy!
"Yes, I've seen they're now lazy!"
Kings should business reduce with charm,
Cease nobly holding subject's arm;
Start in this for seeing pure harm.
