The Anomalous Power

You see the man upright there,
screaming, shouting, and convincing,
wrapping around a lie with another,
playing with people’s minds forever.

The man upright there has a power —
unnoticed, misused, and unmatched
by anyone else.

He call himself as lucky and deserving,
the best one for serving his country.

They rule as if they are God.
They plan as if they are Lord.
But they are nothing more than a fraud.

There wanting
are as big as mountain.

There evil thought
flow like a fountain.

Now you see the man upright there.
