She demands tribute from those in her control.
Unwilling to consider their needs.
Pushing them into her black hole.
Entangling them in her manipulative weeds.
She says she does it for them,
While hiding her true intention.
Really, she has a self-gratification stem.
Her subjects in need of intervention.
Though she will always claim she is saintly.
With toxins, her ways are dripping.
As she is self-focused, injuring greatly.
As their confidence, she is stripping.
Dictators like her cause deep heartache.
As she rules for her sake.
