vulgarian ... Blank

Today’s word is “vulgarian” ... vuhl-gair-ee-uhn ... a vulgar person, especially one whose vulgarity is the more conspicuous because of wealth, prominence, or pretentious to good breeding. (Dictionary.com)

Blank
In the highest places,
Vulgarians write plots,
Outdoing one another,
Their schemes with evil shot.

No power to the people,
Within their stated aims,
The greater good ignored,
As they strategize their games.

When did their good intentions,
Go so miserably astray?
And will their senses come back,
Before we all join in the fray?
