Tyrant

You who perniciously perpetuate
In your own timely image
In a changing, disastrously dangerous world

You reap momentary satisfaction
Millions of blind, awe-struck hangers-on
Whose eerie interpretation is often mistook 

Now you deceptively sway them 
Tomorrow someone will slay them
As each tempo or rhythm separates
