O, from what power hast thou this powerful might

With insufficiency my heart to sway?

To make me give the lie to my true sight,

And swear that brightness doth not grace the day?

Thoughts? Personally, I can’t help but relate it to current politics, and more specifically to the incumbent. But that’s just me.
