Beware the Mania
Beware the mania
rabid wolf of the mind
dressed up like inspiration
bearing gifts of false vigour and strength
It will have you believing
you do something great
will trick you to thinking
your thoughts are revelations
Beware the mania
rabid murderer of peace
masquerading now as genius
fuelling weak flesh with motivation
With no other goal
but to dash you to pieces
while it whispers its promises
of unrealised achievements
Don’t believe it
pay no mind
guard yourself against seduction
Just go to sleep or close your eyes
Be still now, just be still
Beware the mania
diseased stowaway of the mind
It sees no reason
hears no logic
is the enemy of order
Even scorned and ignored
it is a danger to you still
because the teeth come out
and claws extend
His rage is lit
it won’t back down
nor give you peace
or let you go
it cannot yield
it won’t give up
it doesn’t stop
nor will concede
you cannot beat it
just give up
it’s out for blood
yes!
after you
Beware I said
The mania
Alas, it got me too
