Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 Heads Up

In any government, someone

Is the leader who governs all.

Sometimes good, sometimes bad be done.

And on the leader there does fall

The praise or blame by others who

May or may not care much about

What this leader decides to do.

Whether a friend or foe, no doubt,

The leader always wonders some,

Never sure of who might attack,

May seem an ally quite welcome,

But stabs the leader in the back.

Any leader of government

Is paranoid to some extent.
