When Those Who Have Power

For many the price of it is huge for to pay When those who have power with their power do get carried away Sadly history can repeat itself does seem true to say The victims of despots in mass graves do lay By despotic perpetrators far too many to name Human history is littered with mass crimes of shame So many murders in the guise of war we read of and hear Cruel dictators enforce their authority by death and the medium of fear In war zones of the World crimes against humanity are rife Bad criminals with power over others show no respect for life On all who oppose them they only wish ill In bombings and shootings their soldiers maim or kill The forgotten victims in mass graves do lay Of despots who with their power do get carried away.
