By Wesley Provine, 2005

Emperors and fools,
Kings and Pawns.
You show no mercy,
And break all the rules.
You love to be,
The Master of Manipulation.
You’re not content,
Unless you rule the nation.
You treat life as a game,
And oppress the weak .
You mock the ignorant,
And crush them beneath.
What would you do,
If you couldn’t control?
Power and wealth
Kill your soul.
In the end,
You’ll be hated,
The manipulator
Becomes the manipulated.
