Ultimate

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Mar 02, 2024 

Ultimate.
Control.
Power.
Greed.
Human
weakness.
Who
among us
could
resist?
Who
among us
could
walk away?
Power,
wealth
beyond
imagination.
Those who
control A.I.
control all.
From on
high 
power,
control
rains down.
Nothing
else matters.
Ring of
power.
No mere
mortal
could resist.
Resist
the singing
Sirens
of such a
thing.
Seduction.
Mesmerized.
The race
is on.
The end
is near.
Eyes glazed.
Perspectives
lost.
Over the
horizon
it deals.
Riches,
power
beyond
belief,
compare.
Sauron
approaches.
Such
is the
fate of
man.
