Emperor
-Linn Barnes
And, and, well,
I am emperor
the force, the answer, the solution,
I know, have known, will always know
and I will share this with my people,
who love me, who love me, love me,
because they know all I say is true,
the force, the answer, the solution,
because I am emperor,
the force, the answer, the solution
I will prevail since
I have the answer, the solution,
and all those who defy me
are frauds and fools
wearing and bearing false
knowledge against the
incontrovertible fact that
I am emperor,
the force, the answer, the solution
and through this and by me will
all be saved or not,
and I could not care less,
since I am the emperor,
the force, the solution
until I no longer am
even a dark smudge of this
bestial horror,
that even when I,
crashing and tossing
in ruined bedding,
bleed out to the wounded
world the sad truth
that I am nothing.
