The Dictator

You have won
Millions of people under your thumb
You cannot refresh them
And so, you must suppress them
Before they figure out who you really are:
The dark creature from the underworld

The generals and bankers will protect you
Yet why do they look beyond you to the throne
That you have called your own?
