The Political Plot
The Plot
Treachery's afoot
within castle walls.
An assassin whispers
to treason's calls.
The lust for power
brings evil amiss...
as a bravo defines
the last royal kiss.
By rubied dagger
or poison laced wine
the monarch shall meet
with his fated decline.
Political cleansing
is the name of the plot,
the only solution
to this Gordian Knot.
