A Fascist I admit I am,
A self-proclaimed Autocrat
It’s not as if I’d give a damn,
Should someone call me that!
Despot Lord of my Domain,
A Kingdom thrives within my brain
On Monarch’s throne I’m quite at home,
With Sword and Crown to reign…
1762 Catherine the Great:
"Moi, je serai autocrate: c'est mon métier.
Et le bon Dieu me pardonnera:
c'est son métier."
2017 Donald John Trump:
"Me, I will be an autocrat
That is my job
And God will forgive me
That is His job!"
Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

What does Grass do
When winter comes to town
Does it shiver its timbers
Does it freeze underground
Why no! Grass is first-class
How else could it last
Through snowfalls so deep
No sunlight dare seep...
Grass dons fancy jacket and hat
Wad of bills and all that
Bows to winter's autocrat ~
Who adjusts the thermostat
Crown to the king is the best offer
Isn’t sun a gift for day?
Just like moon for night
Power feeds autocrat
What is the feed for a poet?
Four men committee’s report
Instinct Penned paperfor couplet in gift
This alone will fit his pace
Life that long alone not enough
Peace of mind will need to prove
Success will fetch you a worthy life
Fulfilment ranks above
Feathered Fiends

O Death, how can I not resent it that
Your dire rapacity admits no bounds?
With no appeal… unmoved, an autocrat
Whose cruelty every human ill compounds,
And in the end all final hope confounds.
That you must come for me upsets me less
Than something much the harder to address:
For every friend and loved-one that you take,
My grief is all too potent to express,
And far too adamant to ever shake.
