a plutocracy
rules best from the shadows of
mediocracy
Aaron Mullin Oct 2014
Subjugated by the
Not-so-loyal subjects:
Mind | Body | Spirit

Incongruencies
None knowing their place

Poor leadership
I'll bet I can mind my way to a better place
Better try
Plutocracy

So I grant citizenship
To my cunning and intellect
It works but
After a time vibrancy
Fades

So I call in Spirit
In the spirit of Theocracy
Spiritual matters prevail
But I've forgotten to eat
For two days

So I give Body
A seat at the table
Now we have a democracy

Or do we?
Remnants of the Plutocracy
Gave cunning a vote

So we reorganize
Into a meritocracy
< - - 3 pools - - >
Mind ~ Body ~ Spirit
3 votes

Something still isn't working
So I ruminate
Think
Pray
Chastise
And turn things upside
Down

A king should be subjugated
The best leadership
Is invisible

A
True leader
Follows
Their own path

I (the person) am ground
I am the intersect
I am the crossroads for
Mind ~ Body ~ Spirit
I am the King
And
I
Follow
