Warlord

Stands on palace balcony Saluting troops marching bye His sanity long gone asunder. Feared by his broken people Governed with terror With maniacal disregard for life. Sees himself as the hand of God Greatest warrior world has known Reveling in madness, vile beast of war. Secret police torture and murder Hide bodies in secret graves Murdering political enemies. People snatched from the streets Bundled into cars never seen again Prisons running red with blood. Warlord proudly puffs out his chest Mind set upon conquest Extermination for all who oppose him.
