Dictators

It's not an easy question.

Should we trust the dictator

Or

Should we trust the person who acts like a dictator?

A person may throw a lot of the "fucks"in the conversation

and act like he knows it all,

can get all things done

and George Bush or Barack Obama 

will trust him,

bet the future on his stomach.

The dictator will do what he wants.

He will ruthlessly crush all the rebelllious tribes,

lay them low and flat,

but to unite all tribes together,

he will attack a foreign power.

The Arab Spring is here and there

and the ceremony of innocence is butchered.

Darkly, the people liberate themselves...

In the night, they cut off the heads of their enemies.

In the darkness, the bodies burn.

The dictator will eat up money like air.

He does not care where the money comes from.

He smiles and smiles while playing off both sides.

At first, we may be quenched by women, property and drink

but later, he will turn his heel and strike.

He is the people.

He will support terrorists

to prove he's not a puppet.

The Tiger will eat the innocent

but save those who are well-hidden.

At home, we argue endlessly.

The dictator will always seek the nuclear bomb

because it holds the key

as he drinks and drinks the potion of power

he becomes convinced of his damned righteousness.
