The price of Paradise

One revolution could not supply
power enough to satisfy.

Ten revolutions or twenty or more
still won't produce the power longed for.

And so revolutions continue over and over and on
ever the quest for power continues, never done.

What is the price, what is the cost
if one or more revolutions are lost,

will that stop this Great Machine
or is there a Great Machine to stop?

Who or what requires power
measures out the final hour.

In the end, who pays the price
to support our illusions of paradise?
