Caesar wishes to wave the flag of freedom.
Alone in a room, nobody else is trusted,
for it can get windy.. and besides,
they will break it, and then where will we be?
Freedom is precious and must be protected after all.
so it is coveted, placed in a drawer under lock and key
for it's own protection.
The scales of justice are then taken in and locked away
quite sensible really, as they could do real damage in the wrong hands.
No.
Caeser must keep them safe.
they are packed away, next to the flag. Kept out of the hands of those who don't share our values.
Next comes the olive branch. It had been used in the past but look what happened!
They can't be trusted. We must act decisively.
So it is also placed in the drawer.
The drawer is locked and the key is placed in the hand of Thor.
All will be well
Freedom and justice is in safe hands.
Peace!

I am so glad to see poetry written on the political views of historical political figures, such as Caesar! History of all kinds fascinates me as well as a dear poet's response to it. God bless and never give up your skill of writing,
Deidra |
