Profile Of Caesar Poem by Ima Ryma

Julius Caesar was profiled
On coins in 44 B.C,
The firmest evidence compiled
Of what Caesar looked like really.
A wrinkled neck under a gaunt face,
A laurel wreath positioned so
To cover up the bald hair space,
Unflattering image to show.
Why did Caesar ever okay
Such a look of him to be shown?
As one who had quite a vain way,
The answer to that is not known.

Maybe he had too much on mind,
About to be stabbed from behind.
