Nikola Tesla

Tesla what in the hell did they do to you. They stole your ideas and then they left you, Sitting with nothing they stole your dreams. They took your gadgets and your machines. Edison admitted he should not have let you go. The biggest mistake that he would ever know. At the 1893 Worlds Fair your talent shined. When you lit up the world with your light design. You and Westinghouse were quite a team. Going to build a Power Plant till gold convened. The richest man in America he took control. In this venture J. P. Morgan played the title role. You had almost 300 patents in your name. Most of them would be unrecognized with no acclaim. It would be a few more years before you are known. For contributions that were your own. So Mr Nikola Tesla here’s to you. The fame you would receive you never knew. I guess better late than never I hope Edison knows. The spoils of the battle to the victor goes.
