Driven Unto Fear

Driven by his desire

for the wealth

and the power

of another

he had learned

to hate

this hate drove him

now to the point

where the end

justified the means

he accomplished his goal

he found power

he became wealthy

but remained ignorant

thinking he had it all

that he was untouchable

until he met a man

one much like himself

hungry for power

hungry for wealth

a man who could

crumble the empire

he had built

a weakness

now came over him

he now knew fear
