The dictator is cool and resilient
relentless he is
unwilling to abdicate
the throne
albeit stiff
resistance from the masses
fighting from the very bottom
striking back
as a last resort.
Dictator is a fiddling Nero,
the more blood is shed in the land
the more rebels perish
the more delightful he is.
As his
merry-making gradually progresses in his durbar
with his Queen and
danseuses and singers
wine and dine
enjoy dances and songs
he is a fiddling Nero
oblivious of
the advancing rebels
surrounding his fortress.
As he continue merry-making
he knows not
the candle of his life
is about to burn out
and with the merry making
reaching its crescendo
the candle burns more
brightly as never before
when the flame is
about to die down without a
whimper.
