Illusory Alter Ego

No one can truly control what happens in life

No one can control the winds nor waves

Mother Nature brought these gifts

Time forced her to take them back

Pretend you know your depths within

You wallow in illusion

Contend you have it “under control”

Reduced to self-destruction

caution advised

surrender control

tempis fugit

I’m a goddamn asshole

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

“That’ll be one no for the corporal captain”
