The Perfect Democrat

Four I have crossed swords with Death, on

The battlefield of life 

And as many times I was spared by this formidable 

Opponent

Not because of mercy on His part but rather
 
From certitude that His, the final victory will be

But 

Bitter, I am not for my upcoming ending for 

During our fights, came to know Him very well,

To the degree a mortal this slayer can know, 

Thus

Now I am able to declare, that a better democrat than Him

It is impossible anywhere to find 

Since 

He equally treats everyone, regardless of a mighty King one

Happens to be 

Or

Just a ruined beggar!
