I Am The End

In a world full of illusions

I walk amongst all the collusion

They think I cannot see

What they create

While they may think

That they have fooled me

While they may think

That they control me

In ignorance they can’t see

My hand of fate

I am a god amongst the minions

I stand so high above the millions

All those insects crawling low

Amongst the waste

While they laugh in their delusion

They cannot see I’m the solution

The hemlock that one day

They’ll surely taste

They revel in their mindless moments

But one day soon they’ll surely know it

They will see the wicked folly

Of their ways

While they think that I am idle

I am growing in my power

And ever soon

I’ll be the ending of their days

Shaking the rust off a bit here. It’s been a long time since I have attempted writing anything creative, but for better or worse, here it is. Toe in the pool and all that. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Have a great day, folks. May you be happy, healthy and blessed.

KHR, 2025

  15. Now thatโ€™s how you shake off the rustโ€”with poetic thunder and a side of quiet vengeance. A toe in the pool turned tidal wave. Fierce, lyrical, and bold. The creative storm never really leftโ€”just paused with unique effect. Keep writing, the ink clearly remembers.
    Take care. Stay healthy.
