Progression
Power: so easily wasted
In actions (over tasted)
That worked at first:
To answer the thirst.
Although delicious and a sign:
Exuberance is not benign!
Owning power more difficult be,
Requires acceptance of hero in thee,
Wise men say to walk away…
So as to continue another day.
Let balance be a path to shine,
Upon humble steps approaching divine.

I especially love the last two lines, the meaning and how they tie together your poem.
