Absolute Power
Absolute Power
Absolute power is an enigma
He has no known friend here
But deadly dictators try to befriend him
He is a blind cannibal
He consumes parent, friend and foe
But deadly dictators praise him wildly
Like water, he has no shape
He can fit in any known vessel
But deadly dictators try to shape him
Like HIV/AIDS virus, there is no cure
He dictates over life and death
But deadly dictators try to get inoculated
Absolute power is more powerful
Than the powerful of this world
Who can tame him, but a joker!
