Andrew Crisci Poet Rhyme

Risingto Power

Who has never aspired, dreamed or thought
of becoming the leader of the greatest nation
and protect everybody's freedom with ambition;
will his notion of changing something leave that
indelible mark of excellence on history and hearts;
some presidents give all before their soul departs.    

Rising to power is the final step to victory,
whatever was said and promised eloquently
remains in question when the scales are unbalanced; 
don't rush to judgement, or assume you are trumped.

Remain skeptical, until there's no more credibility:
to righten injustices and bring stability and safety
is a hard task for anyone when the road gets bumpy;
be ready to expect the unexpected, keep your sanity.  

Rising to power increases the ego to accomplish more with compromise, 
acting swiftly and striking the one violating humane rules is very wise;
atrocity must be condemned, any tyrant must be taken down at once,
but the ones who speak against it think they've been trumped by surprise.
