Dispatches for the Colonial Office
Let Us Celebrate No Tyrants Day
“We have no king but Caesar!”
-A long-ago
mob as written in St. John 19:15
Even the King of Kings is
under the Law
And too, since Magna Carta, our
earthly King -
From the people and their voices
he can only draw
Such powers as their
assemblies vote to bring
But may God protect us from a
Common Man
Slithering to supremacy
through serpentine speech
Emboldened by the power of
cabal, club, and clan
Mobs chanting for their
master, a soul-sucking leech
God gives us His grace in a
King and Queen
Republics just give us the
guillotine
