Power Is A Mind Game Poem by Kenneth Maswabi

Power Is A Mind Game



Power has no shoe size
It operates in all shoe sizes
But don't be deluded
Power does not mess around
It will intoxicate you
Feed you with madness
And give you courage
To exit reality
Dressing you with a thick skull
Power will inflate your ego
And clothe you with selfishness
Power will dip you in fantasy
And make you lick yourself
Power will dress you with delusions of grandeur
And parade you in front of the masses
Power will make you untouchable
Giving you strength to choke whoever stands on your way
Power is neither a friend nor a foe
Power stretches your mind
Until you cannot exist
Outside the hands of power
Power is a mind game
To be truly powerful
You need to step out of your shoes
And walk barefooted (selflessness)

Very nice poem about how power corrupts the mind. It fills with ego and you keep at a distance from the common men. You become selfish and arrogant. Thanks for sharing such a meaningful poem.
