Striking Poses
We’ve all seen it
Politicians posing as leaders
Self-indulgence on full display
Almost no one does it better than
The guy propping up The Despised One
Could he be even more hypocritical than
The Emperor himself?
He arrives in his Maserati
Ready to do battle in his designer suit
Flashing his Rolex and his Versace
Claiming to fight for the little guy
Who is trying to feed his kids
From food banks
As the land burns
We are forced to depend on him
To end the impasse that
Has paralyzed our kingdom
For many weeks
The Poser can easily do it
But he is fixated on putting
His fat royal pension first
He has to maintain his personal style
What else is he trying to maintain?
He’s not that clever though
He’s stuck in a box
He built for himself
A box that has only one door
A door the Champagne Socialist
Could easily walk through
If he had a conscience
Beneath all that flash
Will he do the right thing
So the burning can finally stop?
