POWER


Power is an illusion

Often given to the greedy

Who believe themselves to be the most powerful

But there is always a more powerful person

There will always be someone behind the scenes

Watching

Guiding

Controlling

Power gives people the illusion of free choice

They believe themselves to be the mastermind

But behind each mastermind is an even bigger mastermind

Thinking

Plotting

Planning

Power is usually given to the greedy

Who believe themselves to be special

But greater power is often given to unknown people

So unknown that they don't even realize their power

Oblivious

Unaware

Blind

Power is an illusion

So well hidden behind deceiving lies

That those in power often don’t even realize their power

Until the rest of the world pays for their blindness
