May 2020
Envious from the clouds
You try building a tower to the skies
Reaching the higher above the world
Just to play the ruler
A ruler of his own foolishness

You reach the higher
Brick by brick
Goal achieved
But now, you wanted more

You trying making it bigger
Only you added more than it needed
Ego got the best of you
As the bottom part of your tower
Cannot withstand
It started to break
As all start to collapse

From above the world you have won
To the inevitable fall to your death
Only yourself
Could slap your own hand in defeat...
