Analysis of Ascendancy & Responsibility
If prosperous, with all culpability
of humans’ strive, let your remorse be true!
You have the lead, thus responsibility,
to clear the path for other humans who
are willing to fight their selfishness too.
Please envision your sweetest legacy,
a future bright for all of humanity.
Use your power and direct a life’s change
that may outlive materiality.
You’re in control, so it is in your range.
