Power Trip

Location

we need it,

we want it,

we breathe it,

we flaunt it.

It builds us up, and it breaks us down.

It give us everything, then leaves us with nothing.

This world would not function without the burning greed of the forever unsatisfied heart,

behind every story in the book of the world there's a determined power hungry 'God',

'God'..spoken with humor; mere humans, that are a little inhumane, mundane, insane.

The 'Gods' go back, 

to Adam and Eve,

to that seductive apple on the tree,

all started with One God,

Thee God,

humans search for any and every way to become him,

a continuous search through decades and milleniums that have shaped our world,

the unending search for the Power Trip.
