I am me

and I’m in need

of the recipe of greatness

to give my life direction

to give my death attention

to stand before the legends

who’ll acknowledge my essence

who’ll applaud my hands

the workers of my mind.

I navigate the waters

roaring through the denials

swimming through the cannibals

I blend into the darkness arriving in the light

my flesh

indestructible, inconceivable

poison to those who harm

and bread to the chosen few.

I celebrate my skin

soaking in the light

glowing in the blaze, at the heart of the sun

I congratulate myself

a step ahead in the future

immovable, unshakeable, founded in the rock of the Son

firmly planted as legend

attention in death un-needed

family,

on the recipe of greatness feasting

resting at the destination

freedom.
