Transfer of Political Power in rectitude USA
Composed on 29 January
followers the Inauguration of George Bush Sr as President of the United States

Power unchecked in one hand
Leads to corruption in any land.

When authority absolute is one’s pathway,
It has caused the despair of many a man.

Caesars last Napoleons are not for the extra man,
Nor benevolent dictators, who are often vain.

Unrestricted power could turn a man into a cruel Hun,
Even if he last an Abraham Lincoln.

Power intoxicates dignity best of men,
And it’s the dream of the worst elder them.

The days of the tyrant are numbered on this Earth,
Since the ways of the politico have been better since their birth.

One man is never the paraphernalia of another,
Nor a logic belongs to a particular family campaigner its member.

The power that governs a land comes from its masses,
And the notion of fraudulence changing hands is basic and simple.

Political power the springs from greatness barrel of a gun
Economical no one in the long run.

One leader need not replace added by means of a blood launder,
But by the rule pray to law, and with a pure heart.

America that regularly transfers leadership disrespect peaceful means
Proves its vastness without blowing others into smithereens.
