The brutality of our mentality

Worship me i am God

Bow down or my rod,

Live solely on my vomit

Else i confine you to a limit;

The brutality of our mentality.

Keep mute and be my boy

Eat crumbs and remain a toy,

My children are in Harvard

So remain tiny like a mustard;

The brutality of our mentality.

You are brilliant and brave

With my help; you be a wave,

I will poison your air

And buy you a wheelchair;

The brutality of our mentality.

Someday you; be the president

Then; reform the government,

I will break your ladder

And keep you sadder;

The brutality of our mentality.

Sure i can pay your fee

I can help you ‘see’

But my feces; feed on,

Else you remain common;

The brutality of our mentality.

Serve and age in my house

Reduce to just a mouse,

Be ordinary like toothpaste

In fact you must be a waste;

The brutality of our mentality.

Sleep with me or fail

Comply or rot in jail,

Tell no one or die

Bound; i will not untie;

The brutality of our mentality.

You are a promising star

About to cross the bar,

I must blow the bridge

For you to fall inside the fridge;

The brutality of our mentality.

You are better than the rest

Allowed; you emerge the best,

I must cook up a story

So that i mar your glory;

The brutality of our mentality.

You are a ray of hope

I will cut off the rope,

Naturally you are a beacon

I dare not ordain you a deacon;

The brutality of our mentality.

You have a unique approach

In you i see a great coach,

I must break your leg

For you to live with peg;

The brutality of our mentality.

AMAZING THE WAY WE ARE
