Leaders and My Affairs

Flattering words like berries 
densely overgrown by moss like 
the barracks around my dreams;

I dive into seas of prose and lyrics, 
overwhelmed by the spirit of fiction
I go possessing what is not mine 

Waves of quotes form my bible,
lines of wisdom and notable minds 
are my virtue, my perfection 

Leaders provide me with countless affairs
as I travel through words to different eras to
see every country, to live and love eternally,

The routine is to follow artists,
foreign inventors, proposers,
believe and live lives not truly ours

Releasing illusions will wreck all barracks 
I must follow the dream, travel own journey,
indulge in the mind which is mine to possess
