The People Who Think Power Is One Thing

 

The people who think power is one thing

Are wrong.

Calm is power, and so is play.

Money is nice, and fame would have its moments,

But some of the best things

Actually do come free.

 

And so much weakness

Dresses up like strength.

Ego is weakness, and the need to dominate;

Even a too-narrow view of the world is weakness -

The kind of view that makes a person think

 

That power is one thing,

Always and only power,

Forgetting about humor,

Lightness, kindness, gratitude, love.
