Embodied by a soulless being

with no clues to how to be
even though surrounded by his subjects

following with their subconscious

and not with their minds.

Because hearts are foolish

and taste everything given, 

though granted by fools...

and fools below fools.

Tasting pieces of empathy

and granting them to ones

with bending backs because

without a spine you are

as weak as twigs-

believe that, believe that.

To be a person

was a granted wish

by a godmother who

had once been with a fairy

and learned to live,
with the heart- without the mind.

That was a lie

etched by a quiet, dark, cruel person

but his words are never enough,

listen to him lie

finding people weaker than I.

That was him

without a sound, he could deceive

with blue strips of bright eyes

and hopeful light, and dead eyes.

His hair as green

as the toxin that laced his nostrils

stinging with every inward breath
but he refused to part his lips, 

he refused to be free from it.

Coming with a word

and the sound of a dancing 

blue light though

he never uses his mind or heart-
though hearts may be fools

they're alive.

And came without the time of day

just to hear us say that we

would relinquish things just to be

a person, a person
just a thing.

And never would we have thought

but with a soul, body, and mind

you were never fully complete

since we are fools

and decide to follow

a sick, maniacal tyrant

without a heart,

without a mind, 
and without a soul.
