There was once a president of strong will Who didn't wish to swallow defeat's pill Started an insurrection For his power's protection He even thought some congressmen to kill? Fortunately, his scheme did not succeed Thus, finally, he was forced to concede He packed things ready to go His ego took a huge blow Now he has to be judged for his misdeed! © Demetrios Trifiatis 18 January 2018

Very well penned my friend - an ego driven man whose money and power has for many years been his downfall, but of course with the ultimate position of power, he thought he could even outdo the law, he still has to pay for his follies, so true! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Jennifer.

Well written Demetrios, either this life or the next you will have to give account for your actions, be you a beggar, pauper or a king. Justice will be served. Tom
