RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
Consolidation of Power
The autocrat’s quest for power
Requires consent of the masses
Not just the elite in their ivory towers
But the middle and lower classes
His push to take the hemisphere
A far cry from America first
Has the world trembling with fear
It has made our security worse
We all know he wants to be king
The crown of a royal empire
He would do almost anything
He would set the sky on fire
But he cannot achieve it alone
The people must line up behind him
While his ambitions have only grown
The opposition will confine him
This remains a true democracy
As long as the people hold
There will be no gilded autocracy
For the people will not be sold
