Mind power


Proverbs 23:33 

33 Your eyes will see strange things,
and your mind will speak perverse things.

 

Mind power

 

Thoughts are draining into a drip ... of a pen that’s quickly moving

Black and white on paper ... that accepts now everything

The mind starts to slow down ... aware of this intention

and will not display itself ... for it is its own king

 

The place where the heart rules ... makes its own domain

Interpreting all the movements ... to influence the will

It uses all it senses ... to under gird decisions

that in time are made ... only selfishness to fill

 

The center of attention ... in its own universe

nothing seems possible ... without its understanding

Plastered oft in nothingness ... building on the perverse

it seems to survive ... only in demanding
