I See

I see deep into your being,

You will never notice that I was ever there,

My understanding passes foggily over your eyes as you remain ignorant and blissful of what you believe to be the triumphs over me in your mind,

Yet I have surpassed you in knowledge, of the knowledge that matters,

I did not school for it, I did not research for it,

I merely learned to know,

Your mind so inept to handle what I see and understand,

I laugh aloud within myself at your arrogant display of false power that you so think you hold,

So sad it seems from a perspective such as mine, so puny you have become,

On different stages we reside, yet so far behind are you that you cannot even see how far ahead I have surpassed,

Your obtuseness offends me, disappear and be forgotten,

Ultimately, that is your destiny.
