Power and fameA Poem by BashjasperIt highlights the effect of ego and love of money
Power and fame are like the prettiness of a seductive goddess
As intoxicating as a gorgeous wine Beautiful and irresistible they are Yet as destructive as a plague They seduce you like the antics of a naked goddess Deceive you like the taste of a sweet wine Intoxicating you to the marrow of your existence Slowly serenading you into the oblivion of your shadow Habouring no space for sobriety Till the sword of vile is drawn from the sheath of innocence Feeling like a champion in a never-ending dream Till your shadow becomes reality Reality of self-destruction and helpless tragedy © 2016 Bashjasper |
