The Grinning statesman

 That lord who has over the realm thus presided
from inside of the tower´s central spire
Robes and contracts are abided
As low citizens do perspire

This Lord is influential outside
secretive and hungry inside
A machine of desire
A devious lier

A smile wide and inviting to endorse or deride
Haunts the counsel as they read it dire
Not in his lips nor brow do they confide
They serve and address him sire

This lord has touched the ghostly dukes and brides
Briefed and directed assasins for hire
Licked spice at the sight of an enemy on fire
Feasted eternal as conquered people cried

A world to be managed under his code one sided
Developing the tools to fashion obsession wild
Harness the masses as if a mind of a child
reactionary and feeble pushed by the tides 

Hovering above the political facets the elecric wire
electrocuting the curious the devious, the denied
Changing his name along each age never tired
Throwing power to control subjugate and bonify

Dancing formalists swing in his direction and step predecidedly
A smile a curved blade cutting the state and guiding the bleed
