Unfit To Rule

How can mere man select one who controls;
to prevent evil’s tendency to oppression;
should man be ruled by a monarchy of souls;
with a family line of succession?

One of life’s great puzzles; who’s fit to rule;
should we vote; or have a monarchy;
crowning someone king; the mark of a fool;
elections; mere collections of malarkey.

Power is the temptress; drawing all near;
especially those seeking to control;
telling the sheep there’s nothing to fear;
such lies, poison the soul;

Who is fit to make important choices;
affecting all lives on this earth;
only the just, can choose those voices;
and, man has been blind from birth.

Most have forsaken the only One who is fit;
turning their backs on He who is greater;
despising most wisdom that’s been writ;
ignoring their own creator.

All who lay claim to earthly crowns;
are unfit to fullfil that role;
eventually, becoming Evil’s clowns;
arrogance corrupts the soul.

Only the Omniscient is fit to rule;
temptation is too great for man;
arrogance and pride; traits of a fool;
displayed, since life began.
