rules the
world.
Same with

attain
dominance.
Control!

the lust
for
power
knows no
bounds.

Push
to extremes.
Then back
again.
Up then

right.
Upheaval.
Over and
over.
Human
nature
playing
out.
Civilization
teeters
as a
result.
Maturity
needed.
Compromise.
Not us
versus
them.
Enlightenment
required!
The
middle way,
is the
way.
