I Am Power [sonnet]

I will always fall between each creature
My great eager arms will curl around all
Among every life I will feature
The blind will see me, the deaf will hear my call
I’m the reason for the order controlled
Why the individuals aren’t the same
Why larger actions will proudly unfold
Why each soul has a role in the world’s game
Yet why are these roles harshly unequal?
Some scripts were written far beneath unfair
I have been stolen and robbed by people
I am more than wanted, no one will share
I should belong to those that are in need
Instead I’m abused by those wearing greed
