It happened
When he happened
Upon something

And was compelled
To have something
More

And more

To the detriment
Of lesser things

And if something
Was good

And more was
Better

How sublime
Would be…

All?

Unless, of course,
There was something

Else…

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far they can go.

Good one.
