Power

"Anyone entrusted with power will abuse it if not also antimated with the love of TRUTH and VIRTUE, no matter he be a prince, or one of the people." Jean de la Fontaine 1709-1784 French Poet, literature master

Power

The young man saw the power

He was a rising star

He would have his finest hour

Amid his minion czars

He soaked up the adoration

Took advantage of the perks

With his close collaboration

He stirred up all the dirt

He has taken his leadership to the point

Of a dictator in his role

And with the crooked people he appoints

They conspire to take control

Apathetic people refuse to see

Their country is in trouble

And if this trend continues to be

Our free society will truely crumble
