Whatever would lure a leader
To organize a motorcade
To drive down the middle
Of a helpless, drained pool?
Water is indeed heavy
With great distributed weight,
But driving heavy
20,000-pound armoured vehicles,
Concentrating great weight
In a single line,
Possibly demonstrates
A lack of judgement.
Should a leader govern by impulse
Or rather with rational empiricism?
Perhaps that is why we are, where we are.
