“I run the country and the world” – President Trump
Chakravarti—
The ruler of the world.
The ruler of the four continents of the world.
Chakravarti—
The mover of the wheels,
“Whose chariot is rolling everywhere without obstruction.”
President Trump can declare—
“I am monarch of all I survey,
My right there is none to dispute;
From the center all round to the sea,
I am lord of fowl and brute.”
(William Cowper would be thrilled.)
Laws and rules are for lesser mortals.
Monarch, Samrat, Shahansaha
And Chakravarti—
They are above the law.
And the King of Kings is decked out in royal blue.
Never in the color of mourning.
Since the world is his oyster,
His wish is our command,
And would make the offering of a crown
Befitting the haloed head blessed with the oil of anointing.
To hell with P. B. Shelly and his fake Ozymandias.
President Trump would soon proclaim in all his majesty,
“Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
And his vassals would run for a change of britches.
Verily, verily I wait with bated breath
For the coronation of President Trump.
So may I shout Long Live the King!
