February 15
Who is this Caesar that everyone in Rome speaks so fondly of? Is this the same egotistical man that I had to save from nearly drowning to death? A man who cannot even swim to protect himself will tower over Rome? Rome calls their rising ruler a brave and noble ruler for they are all sleeping upon clouds. I woke up many moons ago and my eyes are open. Clear as day. The soon to be ruler that is so dearly beloved is nothing more than a coward, a fake, a fraud. He sits upon his iron throne without the thought of those who helped him get there. A weakling is what Rome is going to get as their ruler. A weak and egotistical leader who only does things for himself without any thought of the consequences that await him. “‘It doth amaze me. A man of such feeble temper should so get the start of the majestic world and bear the palm alone’” (Act I, Scene II, 135-138). Caesar is nothing but a child; his foibles will be shown. Caesar is going to pay for what he has done. His reign and power will die as quickly as a rose being stripped of its petals by the harshest of winds. Rome shall kneel before a smarter, stronger, and nobler ruler. He will be the best ruler that Rome has ever known. His name will be Caius Cassius.
