- obviously not suggesting all men are like this or are my thoughts meant in an offensive light ('defective gene' part), but which women of power ever did/do such things? probably not as eloquently put as it could be, but it's difficult to be any sort of eloquent when upset... 

It strikes me as a defective gene some

from the male counterpart of our species

appear to be battling with.  Through the

ages, it's been about conquering lands,

and acquiring power in as vast an area

as possible, to utter mad obsession.  That

old drive seems to be well and thriving

once again, and so difficult to contain.

This need to have all power over others.

This need to be in control of everything.

This need to feel like THE big man.

It's been going on and on through time, and

although the story may settle down for a while,

such occurrences'll always pop back up.  This

ugly head will never want to relent its place as

It seems these men will always naturally exist.

History maps it out well enough.

Today lives it again.

A heartbroken world cries and fears

as yet another 'man of power' snatches

away peace and hopes from all.
