Feats of Intelligence, Feats of Will

Sharpening my oath 

For growth has allowed me

To change perspective,

Detecting minute details

Of extravagance in small happenings

Has invited me into a higher echelon

Of thinking about the big picture,

 

What drives me?

What motivates me?

What makes me, me?

 

I am not here for your entertainment,

Or for prior engagements we may have made,

I'm here to be the best I can be 

In this limited time I've been allotted, 

Plotting my vision made clear

By the way of ignorance and 

My now unending venture to 

Stamp it out,

 

See me in the parlor,

I'll be performing feats of intelligence for all to see,

Marvel at the majesty of illusion

As I prove to them I exist only

When it suits them up and down,

When I am useless to them

I will evaporate and be a dark spot 

On an otherwise beautiful painting,

 

Make yourself happy

Not others,

When you make your own happiness

Others file in regardless of

Their consent
