Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Limerick

Notes About The Poem

" POLITICS " MY PHOTO, ©

Misuse of Power

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!

Jennifer Proxenos January 18, 2021 at 9:37 AM 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.
