I’m here, can you not see this intricate detail,
carved into a vessel of flesh and blood.
I’m not here to possess some greatness,
To be put on display by your hardened pride.
I learn with every clumsily guided step,
Taking in all the information that is granted.
Ha! I surprise you with my crafty insight,
You thought I would stumble in my stride.
I see how you challenge the world doggedly,
You seek imperfection for your collection.
Your cravings derive from a hunger lost to youth,
Yet you cling to what your heart thinks it misses.
Simple tasting would not quench your thirst,
Oh no, you require the satisfaction of victory!
Can you feel the compliance in my flesh,
I may succumb to your will to appease you.
But in the grand scheme of this game of wit
Your true adversery is non other than your heart.
