A Vulnerable Legacy opus 809

31 March 2026 0841 Hours Politics, Custom, History
Unpopular Egyptian pharaohs who left their signature in stone,
Were 'disappeared' by a subsequent reign.
It took just a desiccating chisel.
Only a certain type of mind attempts to leave
A legacy of names plastered everywhere.
May it be that the present regime's remembrances
Are demolished as time passes.

This is surely a time of unAmerican shame.
