Satire

They have always been with us: 

These who want to rule the world. 

. 

They create dynasties 

through death and destruction. 

. 

They build mausoleums of precious stone 

to hold the atoms of their once rapacious schemes, 

enticing the ready worshippers 

to their holy shrines. 

. 

I think 

if you follow any well-worn path, 

lined with flowers, you'll get there.
