Shaking Like a Leaf

Shaking like a leaf Won’t make you a chief, Never takes one to the top, Never a popular prop; Would rather one drop And one’s mission flop … Never for centuries A Lever, Even slightly harms The Liver; Therefore not a prize from its giver … So, on no account whatsoever Must your decisions waver Nor at the sight of foes quaver As neither is a saver Nor you portray as clever.
