Fili Mihi

There is none fit to rule

No not one

Even Brutus knew, that fateful Ide of March

Men will rule and men will reign

And falter, flailing, rage in vain

The law of Rule is a leader corrupted

Sacrifice of power is progress interrupted

The Rule of Law is merely an outline

The wicked circumvent and the righteous define
