Magistrates and Majesties
Survive
magistrates and majesties survive
well below the truths that are found in prose.
next to the structure of words
crowns can be found with limits in scope.
and divine authority? well, that’s just a joke.
the pen has always been mightier than sword
as it controls the many, and that as a matter of fact,
cannot be ignored. yes, indeed, presidents and prime ministers
may all thrive under the guise of biblical text
but that is only because if they say differently
a radical may randomly come for their neck.
but it is still safe to say, monarchs, rulers, and leaders alike
are all bound to the will of the people.
do you see now how this makes sense?
okay, now go ahead ask me
what happens next,
when written words become nothing but lies?
simple. magistrates and majesties survive
