A Crown Worth My Time

Though gloom and despair
Nip at my heels
Rebelliousness
Crowns my head

Against this world
That binds and binds
And saddens to the tenth
Rebelliousness stands tall

When the world presses on me
Its demands and its rules
The apexes of my crown
Break the bubbles of their world

Their on the crests of the crown
Lie my true points of life
Where no plan can encompass
All the riches and honors
That lie in store for me

Plans of flying
Above all the pollution and rubble
Plans of creating
Works of thought and amazement


Nothing will move it
From its place
Not wind nor sea
Nor air nor fire
It is there
To the end of my time
