The Ego Speaks


Excellent at excellence

I inhale detail

My very life is opportunity waiting to happen

Factual apparition

The desire for prominent position

Keeping my head held higher than tuition

Never minding the extent of your disposition during my rise

on and onward through the abyss

accomplishing everything you ever wished

Your tragedy brings romance to my heart

My ambition is unlimited and this is only the start

Your perspiration feeds my inspiration

I breed brilliance

I reside in resilience 

The energy I carry buries many

Causes the demise of plenty

Brings an end to Any

I am what you are afraid to be

I speak in truths you are afraid to see

Passionate about power

Ferociously frank

Robbed of action hidden deep inside your memory bank
