So, you all think you can defraud and defeat me?!: A poem 

Did you think my sharp wit would be cut in half 

if I fell on a razor’s edge? Do you think my bones 

would crunch if you had the ceiling and floor  

of the universe collapse on me? Do you think 

your clandestine workshops of clocking destiny  

against me can turn the tide against me? All your 

Peters don’t hold heaven’s keys for me! I am just 

the pebble that rattles you in your enormity of 

chicanery! See how your doorbells sing alarming 

sirens in your ears, so that you are deafened by 

my candour! Watch me bequeath you your self- 

seeking solipsism with a fast kick in its solar plexus, 

each time you think I have died in defeat! Connivers 

get no paradise! In all my self-flagellation for you 

ingrates is the knowledge that you all will be struck  

to your cores with your turnstile wickedness; that 

when you all looked away from me in callous cunning 

materialism, you lost everything worthy of me. And so  

when the time comes when you will be rasping, rag-picking for my  

forgiveness, I should boot you all away to an orbitless 

darkness in an unforgivingly harsh infinity!

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
