THE REAL POWER IS TO RELAX
they say i can do it so i do it
they say i can make a say so i say it
obedience.
both man's greatest weakness and strength
system charged
full speed ahead
beeeep beeeep
i am in control
~~~~~~~~~~
i crave power
like you crave power
most fear to admit that they crave power
it is the most dangerous poison for those who speak "celebrity"
with their drugs, alcohol and tobacco and money
It is a vulnerability that we all desire to know that we are all recognized
so when i say your name
i know who it belongs to
i know it is yours all yours
the sole property you own
your identity, your name is what you hold
your magic trigger which you bow
to all whose lips dare to mouth
curiously bewildering you from the day you were born
representing everything you have.
a word
has power
but the reason i crave power
is not just to have place to yell about
but because i feel a need
i have to have a tiny pocket of time where I can just breathe
just to be free in my brain
relax is what they say
aware
focus
time
moment
pause
that is power
that is power where i can browse the internet
meet new people
hang out with friends
explore
write
read
draw
sing
dance
lazy leisure time
that don't mean we are not already all lazy
the entire mass majority of Americans are lazy
and that don't mean I don't lie or say stupid stuff
because, honestly, I do
because that would be a lie if i denied that too
freedom, is the claim in America
lack of freedom is the complaint in America
what we know is
that we all have to right to eat, sleep, pee, fuck, talk shit, do shit, have equality, have responsibility, have love, to love with pure intentions
unity, accordance for coordination of a community
but what
then what do we do?
we work each day and night
our hearts get addicted
we race a race with no clear finish line or trophy
but for what?
just for that little itty bitty moment, that special pocket of time
if ever to enjoy
that you call it home
where you job is to relax
and that is power
that is freedom
leisure is a gift
and I see that is what is worth living for
to have and then to be
peacefully
and in tranquility
ahhh.
