Power/Power Poem by Alufa Oke Joshua

Power/Power

Rating: 5.0


To prove how unpredictable a man can be,
give him POWER.
every powerless man is an humble personality,
what makes a man to become outlaw,
is the amount of Power he controls at that point in time!
don't call him an humble and faithful man but call him a Powerless man.
He bowed down his head,
because he had no Power to lift up his head before the Powerful.
powerless man plead for something,
but the Powerful man request for it.
a powerless man don't want to lose the shadow
of a Powerful man next to him,
while a Powerful man never want to see a structure
of a powerless being without showing his Powerfulness upon him.

An amazing analogy of having and not having power and how man is driven by it. Very insightful and thought-provoking! Love it! Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
