Poem Artwork

When a proper state figure is committed
For running the government business
He'd keep his faculties lodged
In the five internals fully unemployed;
His power of seeing and hearing
Is not displayed while he is motionless;
As a devoted successor of his ancestors,
His authorized presence will be sensed in all.

While he is profoundly silent,
The thunder of his words will resound;
While his movements are unseen,
Like those of a spirit-like phantom,
All the heavenly influences will follow them;
While he is thus unconcerned, impartial,
And does nothing, his genial ascendancy
Will attract and gather all people round him.

Being so, what leisure has he to do
Anything more for the winning the world?!

Ah if only we could "win the world" with out simple presence. Still, it's a thought. There is something to be said for detachment thru action, as you say "unconcerned, impartial." It is sound advice.

Tyrann(y)asaurus (w)Rex v4 by RickthePoetWarrior

That I hope soon to be extinct dinosaur, our government, is bludgeoned and beaten as thoroughly as the freedom of the law lets me without jail time.

Be Afraid. Beaveree Eh Frayed v6 by RickthePoetWarrior

From the land of the milked and honeyed here’s a few political faux pas and a bit of attitude exposed to the harsh light of a Canadian who actually has their own opinion.
