Poems ✍️

It's easy to seize a Caesar,
He's just another man,
It's easy to tease a teaser,
For all you need's a plan…
And yet to kill young Julius,
That's not a pretty thing,
And so the Ides are infamous,
As prophesied to bring…
But Caesar carried on quite brave,
Regardless, come what may,
Dismissing claims he wasn't safe,
Until his final day…
Then Brutus was a brute for sure,
As Caesar soon found out,
Thus Caesar's dead for ever more…
Of that, there's no more doubt!
