Beyond

my destiny stems far and beyond

born with the spiritual

no need for a magic wand

within, ancient wisdom corresponds

people unintentionally fear the black swan

I’m a freedom fighter better than Flynn from the movie Tron

the force in me is strong, as I skywalk with Han

ideas constantly, sprouting like spawns

in my dreams I own a fast-pitch ball golden glove like Barry Bonds

driving eclectic rides and carry gadgets, 007 call me the female James Bond

taking down cruel empires more strategic than Ghenghis Khan

form a strong squad like the lions of Voltron

at times I begin to feel lost and withdrawn

it’s difficult trying to save a world,

when most of people don’t know they are pawns

I feel for them just as much as Chaka Khan

my hope remains alive from dusk til dawn
