Either Egos Or I Goes (2011) Poem by David Joel Rodriguez

There waits the horse in my dreams sipping from the lake
I, the once was an honored prince approach only to tame
I happened to have witnessed my movements from another
But I'm lost in my own world with scenery waving like water

Within moments do I realize my lonely life as I slowly wake
I glance my surroundings as this beautiful creature exclaims,
'Listen fool, as corrupted you've become, heed your slumber,
be wary of others comments or you may end up going under! '

Somewhat with a wry spoken tone he said, I said, 'you snake,
I am not heading towards corruption or what is it you claim!
Hmm, such a vague conception coming from an exiled burgher
Is that your outstanding observation which you've cyphered? '

My head kept itself together knowing that hate would formulate
Again, I felt time staring as if essence dignified my present state
I understood that I can't seem to make a mistake as a dreamer
and, as a heavy dreamer, I am too far to be a 'snake charmer'

I understood I cant make an error of my own reality's sake
Then the silence of the creature shortly began to partake.
The stallion creature was a still life as mind switch had deter
Though my head provokes rattling swirls like a connoisseur.

A variety of rich assets of life, but only a few could simulate
An obsolete work of art in order to regain an adequate state
Decisions would arise a dream to reality for which side to nurture
Though not what you thought, a snake was defeated by an oyster

A chain reaction of cognitive stress began to take weight
A vibrant masquerade of symbols, virtues, and strength.
A static pendulum pulsates with a wavy visual modality to ensure
With every sound and aspiration, breathing out what must endure
