An Unholy Alliance or We Three Are One

Poem 1

I am centre stage
I am violent rage
when I am ignored
and I will give a mighty roar
turning the airwaves dark
with my discontent
as my big ego bullies
all the innocent  
on my way to the centre 
of what I believe is 
the bullseye of attention
         ----------

Poem 1a

you are found by opening your eyes
violence because of your frustration
is not the wise choice
you must control your inner lion
and not show your immaturity
otherwise your fire will be consumed
and you will lash out at the innocent
because you have succumed to the "I"
and believe your false reality
and in this place you will fade to nought
        ---------------

Poem 1b

focusing your attention upon me
helps me to reduce my anger
when I am ignored
otherwise my ego will roar
long and loud and so proud
for my vanity travels well
and I will cause much harm
on my way to were I will be
worshipped by the easily led
for I will be their graven Idol
and their daily Holy Bread
