Is This What You Want

No matter the direction humanity takes
Disaster will come their way
The past is created
The present is programmed
While the future
Continuously rewrites the dead
All this happens
As we live in our head

We are all trapped
In this oblivious illusion
With no keys
To unlock the scheme
And those in control
Tell you when to be free
As if you are slaves
On your knees

What is good and evil
When society
Tells you what to devour
How can you say
What is true
When your mind
Makes up color
And you’re blind
To the present
Always escaping the past
To create a future
That moves too fast

When did you
Stop asking questions
Was it
When you failed the tests
And decided to live
Just based on commands
Are you going to wake up
Or is this what you want
Until you’re dead

This char of yours is very … what’s the word? Tortured? Yes.

@littleavocado

Yes, my character has been tortured–emotionally and physically.  He wasn’t just torture in one lifetime but multiple lives and the scars are imprinted on his soul.

@raphaeltiriel Poor guy.

@littleavocado

Well, that is just one perspective.  The prize is worth it in the end.  It’s an interesting story.

@raphaeltiriel And the prize is? Release??

@littleavocado

No, it won’t be release–it will be more than that. I can’t tell the prize, lol.  I also wanna tell the story through different media–not just writing or social media–if everything is successful there might be an interactive 3D story. I want to change the business for the positive, and I am a Scholar in a Doctor of Management in Organizational Leadership program, so I am also studying to lead my organization to the future.  I am highly inspired by Unitive Leadership and that form of leadership will guide my organization.  Demonstrate positive change and others will follow.
