E.G.O

A simple name thou doth hath.
Three letters,
very easy to grasp.
Only but
if thy simple name
half described thy complex nature
then half the people you destroy
would still be standing
or sitting
at their rightful place.

Subtle when cunning,
Silent when loudest...
true definition of enigma.
You're always wrong
especially when right.
You always run ahead,
even when walking.
You boast humbly,
and brag gently.
You're bossy,
to the core.

You dominate
actions of men,
great and ungreat.
You orchestrate
 the inanity of women,
cultured and uncultured.
You veto
the downfall of many,
hundreds and thousands.
You are a legend,
a true slave master.

A serious question
lingers though...
whether you are
Masculine or Feminine?
For we
humans,
it's simple...
'Assigned at birth'
But you
simply existed,
Since the beginning.
