Overt

Overt

A Poem by John Prophet


Overt.
Overt power.
Overwhelming.
Over arching.
Vice grip
control.
Mind bending
hold.
Global.
Puppeteer’s
wires
crisscrossing.
Confident.
Arrogance.
Invincible.
Yet,
just
underneath.
Just below
people see.
Butterfly
effect.
Subtle field
vibrations
intensify.
Just beneath.
Building.
Yet,
still unseen.
Ethereal.
Understated
power.
Weaving
throughout.
Cloud seeding.
Undermining,
coursing,
circling
the realm.
Global.
Solitary
figure,
soon to
appear.
Shining
a light.
Lighting
the path.
The middle
way.
Solidarity.
Bringing
balance.
Never ending
battle of
night and
day.

I enjoyed the way this read and even the way it looked on the page. It reminded me of a sound wave graphic which kind of fit with the theme, the wave part at least.
It is a constant struggle that we in the world fights every day against those who seek to just control everything. They don’t even necessarily have a master plan or anything to bring to the table they just sometimes want to be in charge.
