A War For Your Mind

A War For Your Mind

A Poem by The Poet of Black Wings

A small... influence.

A light little suggestion.

A nudge this way, a pull that.

Little voices, small pictures, and words

all trying to convince you.


There are people and things,

mostly things,

that seek to control you.

Want to own you.

They range from small to tall

but all are quite fat.

They survive off of gluttony and greed,

and they also hope that you break your

creed.


Oh, I'm not saying they are bad, no.

Such is forbidden.

I only suggest and hint and nudge the fact that,

they are monster, unable to control their need for

the want.

They were given strength long ago

and lost power over it.

Such is the way.


It lead to this neat little mess.

Our little war.

Our struggle between me them you...

And we.
