Power Play
It seems
Self-evident.
Subtle.
An inspiration to allegiances and devotions.
Raw.
Affecting your very existence.
At the heart of the human drama.
To struggle and seize
Tangible assets
Through attraction rather than coercion.
"A psychological relation between those who exercise it and those over whom it is exercised."
Words empirically verified,
Vulnerable nonetheless.
Relative, not absolute.
At anytime a battle is
Raging;
Fraught with obstacles.
The arrogant
Self-absorbed
Self-indulgent
Contemptuous
Terror.
The sheer destructive power.
But one must not back down
Or defy and mock it.
The balance
Comes back into vogue
With minimum damage
To itself.
