As lost in my writing

As I am the world

Fixated on finding

Perfection of word

Has guided me thus far

Along undeterred

Though I swerve

With a fervor

Fanatic erratic

My course is corrected

With focused precision

Of my diplomatic

A noble demeanor

Of virtuous tact

An entitled opinion

On ethical fact

And a skeptic at best

To conventional wisdom

A glitch in traditional

Bugs in the system

A tiger's charisma

The candor commander

My lion-heart echoes

The Great Alexander

With reckless abandon

I conquer my fears

With artful aesthetic

I fashion my spears

Of destiny waiting

For my hands to seize

The moment I note

My divine symphonies
