A Sublime Concoction



A Sublime Concoction

Emotion’s an evil elf that dances with destruction
Reflecting the inevitability of entropy’s reversal of all creation
Some’d say a design flaw that’s universal
But there’s a life solution, albeit an unpopular decision of will

Will you or won’t, is the other side of this equation
For you’ll be damned if you don’t, that’s reality’s vilification
The mind’s our sole pathway to being our own sublime
Reason based on logic versus emotion can seem like drinking lime

It’s all woven into politics and love, something also known as life
Jealousy and hypocrisy as well as anger and spite
Do you want to lose your nose in an irrelevant moment?
Far better to pretend you’re a nun in a convent

See, self-control’s a cagey creature that loves you
Together with your mind, it cooks a wonderful witch’s brew
Strategy and tactics wins the day, read the Great Sun Tzu
Emotions do have place but that’s complimentary to all you do
