Fool for Words.
Was Judas a hypocrite?
When he gave the famous kiss?
Was Shylock a devious knave
Bartering his soul
Over a pound of flesh?
Was Brutus false to his friend
When Caesar's life he put to an end
And was Lucifer really so treacherous?
When he wanted equal footing
With God, alas?
We will never know
And can't forget, for...
"The evil that men do
Lives after them...
While the good is oft interred
With their bones"
Truer words than these Julius never said.
;)
So et tu my friend?
Is this how it ends?
