Illusion

--- Illusion --- Meet your guest! I am your friend. Together - We - until the End. I am your mind! 'Control' I send. It’s Me - not You – the shamans blend. I control your arm – your feet – your hand. The path of which you think you’ve planned. Pre-ordained by Me is where you’ll land. In sky - on ground - in sea – on sand. You stumble through your programmed day With little doubt ‘twas all your way While ‘I’ – in here – do make the play. ‘I’ control your actions night through day. You’re rejecting this – thinking false? Try reaching down. Feel my pulse. ‘Tis I – the this – the other – else. ‘I’ - not You – would cause convulse. Who causes flinch when you get burned? While you’re asleep life’s my concern. Why must resist what’s being learned? My place within I think I’ve earned! It’s Me! ‘I’ beat the heart - expel the pee. The poop of what you should-not-be. It is ‘I’ - the senses four – plus see. Be sure to capitalize the ‘I’ in Me! 2015
