Mr Krabs Secret Formula

Chilling with my computer
Skyping to myself,
Pretending that the computer
Talks back...so lets imagine:
I'm Plankton and i want the secret formula!
The gradients of success,
Too bad: guess that I don't know 
All you need is a goal, love
And hard work, 

Sponge bob knew better:
The man child, pan
So happy and full of life...
And so annoyed squid word is:
The mind as the heart thinks for itself
So misunderstood but the sponge-
Absorbs all, from sadness to pain;
Oh sandy: the irony of living in the dry lands
the desert of the ocean,
But for our dreams-
We see through the illusion!
The shine, the starfish: 
As Patrick assists Him
From the bottomless pit,

Mr Crab's, the demanding and greedy ego
From Pearl the daughter-
To the penniless Work of the mind
To satisfy it's wants,
The customers: as the sponge delivers
The orders...the krabby patty!

Back to me: Plankton
The one eye fellow...
No more trying to steal-
The secret formula, I know now!
To see the full picture:
I gotta open my right eye;
And accept the people in my life:
Family and friends...Strangers too, 
For growth we need that challenge,
But for love we unite ,so I 
Use both of my eyes to see,
As I swim out of these waters!
