A burning sword
The lord of light
Prophecy
from ice
Reforged
in fire
The mad Queen
falls
A raven rises
The many faces God
With all its disguises
Throne made of iron
The most favoured
of prizes

Ancient geometric design
Warp speed is sublime
I feel like a character
from "Deep Space 9"
At this rate of pace
I'll rapidly decline
Check out of this space station
Find a different Alien Nation
Look towards another constellation
They'll probs still have record
levels of inflation!
Pyramid scheme on the
Martian dune sea
I own several shares in
interstellar cryptocurrency
We're all multi-trillionaires out here
Trying to escape the clutches of
capitalist induced fear
Do we sell or do we hold?
In the Future we'll see we
no longer have to mine for gold
Be free, be wise and be bold(ly)
(Go were no one has gone before)

Talking to yourself is the first sign of madness
We do it every day in our heads
Conversation starts the moment you wake up
Then when we dream we circumnavigate our subconscious
We don't question it's reality
When I open my eyes I feel nauseous
Try to lift my body and move my feet forward
First steps are always clumsy and awkward
All I want to do is promptly get to the toilet
My arms are so heavy need to get to the kettle and boil it
Wake up and smell the coffee
After the 2nd cup I'll feel less groggy
Vision returns to normal, no longer foggy
Have some breakfast then sit and meditate
Focus is sharp now, no time to hesitate...
But wait... ...
Another cup of coffee to get me going
Now I've just realised I've forgot my clothing
I turn on the shower to reinvigorate my power
Get dressed try to tidy up the mess
Wash the dishes
Locate my daily wishes
Still trying to figure out what my career is...?
