The ruler of his domain,
King, President, Prime Minister,
everyone knew his name,
as he wore the mask
of calm and confidence.
Striving for fame
and a better world
he climbed the ladder
of notoriety.
But strong and silent
in the background
toiled the one
who caressed this illusion.
A humble witness,
she oiled every cog
and the gears ran smoothly,
the family gathering
exhibited on parade
to present a picture of unity.
No minor detail left unturned,
she has been the one
to substantiate his existence
and willingly perpetuating
her own anonymity.
Honorable mention
