Plato Was Right Poem by Kurt Philip Behm
Plato Was Right
Without exception, throughout all time,
governments devolve
Aristocracy, the Philosopher King,
benign in his resolve
Timocracy, the city state,
landed and secure
The Oligarch, his army placed,
to rule in peace and war
Democracy, each voice to shout,
as chaos takes the reins
When Tyranny must force its hand
—as socialists have deigned
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September,2020)
