There is a little space,
in behind your eyes
where I reside
and take it all in.
Such a little thing,
but never satisfied,
pushing you to see more,
need more,
be more.
Push.
I am deity.
I am your aspiring line.
You are just a vessel,
serve my purpose;
by this time,
your mind has already wandered
off on to
sex
money
food
sex.
Did you ever wonder why
you have this appetite?
For blood?
For war?
For more?
The spoils don’t go to the weak
and you know what for;
you’ve bitten down with your teeth,
hung on by your nails
given it all to win,
to fuck,
to survive everything.
You’ll never have enough.
I am your lust,
I am your need,
I am your life.
You’re just a hollow automaton
without me.
Let’s play another game.
I’ll let you linger on a name.
A thought,
just for a moment
and it’s there,
you’ll never forget it.
Picture their face
and I’ll
give it meaning.
Make it smile,
now this means so much to you.
I will show you what I do.
Maybe they are dead and gone,
maybe they’re your only son,
maybe they’re the one you love,
maybe they’re just who you want.
Now reach out and touch their face,
hear their voice inside your head.
Let all of this banish the space;
everything is gone,
just you and them.
Exist like you know you want
to hold on and never let go.
I am your immortal thoughts.
I am magic.
I am you.
I am here and you are, too.
Just behind your eyes we move.
We are so alive,
I wish you knew
how much power we could have
only if you’d choose
to admit that you are me
and I am you.
