Hill Overlooking Humanity
Over the ocean
Over the hill
Hill overlooks the city
Hill overlooks the town
Town of my birth
Town I was born
Born with a bonus
Born with a boon
Boon unspeakable
Boon concealed
Concealed by my parents
Concealed from everybody
Everybody ignorant
Everybody unaware
Unaware I saw through them
Unaware I read their minds
Minds playing games
Minds playing tricks
Tricks I learnt
Tricks I mastered
Mastered through experience
Mastered through time
Time revealed faces
Time showed places
Places I did hate
Places turned my fate
Fate turned the tables
Fate drove me to the city
City enlarged my scope
City was a kaleidoscope
Kaleidoscope of brains
Kaleidoscope of thoughts
Thoughts I tamed
Thoughts I manipulated
Manipulated the honest
Manipulated the wicked
Wicked learnt compassion
Wicked learnt empathy
Empathy thrived
Empathy prospered
Prospered lives
Prospered souls
Souls so pure
Souls so flawless
Flawless society
Flawless humanity
Humanity restored
Restored peace
Peace...
Restored ...
