It Is a Nickname
What is mistaken so is
dire self-aggrandizement
by ambitious fellows
re-baptized by citizens
hijacked by opportunists
as true love for a nation
It is a nickname, a vanity...

Decisions
We are on a precipice of War
Yet you spurn the most skilled Knight
Just to stoke your selfish Desire?
You choose pettiness over the Realm

The tempest is Imminent 
Yet you let the chief captain disembark 
Just to assert your dominance against mutiny?
 You choose self-aggrandizement over Lives.

Deludes clear, rational thinking;
As a result, grasping at straws
Hoping for the impossible....
