The Precious Stone

An inanimate object that drives us.
It calls us by names.
Rare it is and valuable as well.
It is man’s desire to have such a thing.
There is only one “Precious Stone” in the world,
And no one has come to claim it.
The “Precious Stone” is the definition of absolute corruption and superiority
Man still wages many wars for this one “Stone.”
This “Stone” is the sole source for any battle or declaration of oneself.
Many have almost had it in their grasp, but somehow it slips away.
Lost forever but never forgotten.
If the “Precious Stone” falls into the wrong hangs there will be hell on Earth.
If the “Stone” falls into the hands of good we shall feel heaven itself and fear no more.
There are many insignificant replicas of this “Stone” in the world;
They are usually passed down from father to son.
The “Precious Stone” has no desire of its own.
The “Precious Stone” is wanted by every creature.
The “Precious Stone” has been called many things and has been linked to other meanings.
The “Precious Stone” has been called love, money, hate, dominance, and respect.
But its most popular name is its favorite.
Power.
And for this reason it has only one Master and it isn’t man.
