Chosen by God: LimerickS

 A king with a crown on his head,

"I'm God!" he proclaimed, it is said.

But power's a mask,

A damn toxic task,

When pride turns to conceit instead

***

A leader, quite puffed with his worth,

Said, "God chose me to rule all on Earth!"

He sowed seeds of strife,

Claiming "My way's true life,"

While his conceit enjoyed a new birth.
