Funny thing about power
She pledges allegiance to no one
She asks no permissions
She seeks no favours
She just takes
She's all appetite and no soul
She sees pain and it's all another vulnerability to be exploited
She notices joy and seeks to manipulate it
She respects no one
Watch out!!
When she grabs on to your shirt-tails, you are her slave
Maybe not forever but then, isn't forever overrated?
Before you say you've got power
Remember she's got you
But she does have a weakness and his name is pride
They are siamese twins, inseparable
You get power and inherit her brother
He gets to drop the axe on you.
