Sex

At nighttime we pretend.

It’s easier in bed.

Our heightened emotions

distort into a twisted

desire to have each other close.

Money

We act like we have it.

Lavish trips and enough

left over for a few hits.

Power

We bathe in it.

She likes control.

I like being controlled.

Sex, Money, Power.

Many would say we lust and we envy.

That we are filled to the brim with greed.

But we will carry on as we are.

Carry on with all the lust,

Envy,

Greed

Because no one will stop us.

None of that will matter.

Not once we rule the world.
