Megalomaniacs Lunatics And Delusion
Who is the megalomaniac
who the victim of hubris?
What is dividing line between
healthy narcissism endowed
essential in all since birth?
What is a reasonable amount
of healthy narcissism in adults?
An individual's realistic
perception of self needs
allows balance harmony
in relations with others?
Bertrand Russell defined an
interpretation of megalomania
stating the megalomaniac seeks
to be powerful not charming
like a narcissist; therefore the true
megalomaniac seeks to be
feared rather than to be loved.
Thus many lunatics and most
of the great men of history
share similar forms of delusion.

The megalomaniac differs from the narcissist by the fact that he wishes to be powerful rather than charming, and seeks to be feared rather than loved. To this type belong many lunatics and most of the great men of history.

Two commotions
the roots are hanging like shoots,
the sun sets, the light is dim I
arrange myself for writing, a
burst of commotion in the corner
of my mind threatening, I look in,
no dogs, but human beings grunting
like pigs the contention is the bone,
less or more calcium: the cut off money,
I cut my nose too as I poked among
them, but they are born on this earth to
cook the book of honesty, I am not fit
any where in the scheme, I faint when
I find them hand in hand in herd on
the red light street, I am alone in the dark
of the dingy room, on the table of poetry
there is another din, a lady jester writing
poetry on a rock star, a jackal from the hell
throwing his hands and legs with only
sound words to stab and create rumours,
megalomaniac fools of the paradise believe
some are scared: but finally truth is out,
this is not a dance but a real jerking of
the great nonsense.
Today I have two commotions in my mind …

Megalo-Maniac Type Specific
Control. Control. Control.
All. All else. Everything else.
Death. Pain. Poverty.
Dealt with indifferently.
Rejecting charm in power quest
indomitable will to super impose.
The megalomaniac seeking
to be feared not to be loved.
Exhibit A: many lunatics
clearly certifiably insane.
Exhibit B: most presumed
great men of history?

Megalo-Maniac: Power Challenged
only sale of dominance
imposed is dissimilar
power challenged
megalomaniac
vents power hunger
upon helpless
tormented animals
humans in subjugated
herded servitude
in acts of indifference
delighting in cruelty
imposed physically
or twisting mentally
emotions in pain play
vile nature despicable deeds
are ingeniously hidden
in multifaceted chameleon identity
jack the rippers
prey upon victims
in diverse forms
multitudes
of changing faces
across countless ages

Return Journey
I forgot, was it me
in a body pile draped in dust,
still hot, bruised, burnt, a mad megalomaniac
starting a civil war, creating suicide bombers,
young virgins inhaling death?
This journey under the guns, displacing
hapless thousands, will reach destination
on thick, blood stained red, dirt road of life? Step by step
the dynasty breaks and violence, a malignant
spread overtakes the bones
of avatars; the round bloodshot eyes
cross the barriers of silence and step out
from the skin: they were bombing
his bunker.

Soliloquise
Me in soliquise i wait and wonder,
Me in soliquise i like and ponder,
It is soliloquise, i dont hunt im a defender,
Me myself and I, Its soliloquise
It started as a simple chat,
Suddenly u and me a happy heart,
Together a journey we start,
Me and you our love so great
Me in soliloquise, i call you megalomaniac
Yes my heart you have pride in,
Me in soliloquise, i call you kleptomaniac
Yes my heart you stole,
Me in soliloquise, i call you nymphomaniac,
Yes my intimacy you cant resist
Together in soliloquise, afrodisiac
I met you, was peplexed
I liked you, was hypnotised
I loved you, was mesmerised
I grew for you, was astonished
Me in soliloquise, i love my weakness for you
My heart like a cinemma,
Im between his horns, dilemma
My voice gone, i stummer,
Save me from this tramour,
Its me in soliloquise.

Three Headed Mind Pollution
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
I gotta align my mind, but I ain't got the time
My mind mind? Yes, it minds. now do you mind?
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
Out of my mind
Three headed mind pollution
When the mind goes blind, you just might find
The mad man was busy sucking down the wine
Three headed mind pollution
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
I gotta align my mind, but I ain't got the time
My mind mind? Yes, it minds, now do you mind?
I made up my mind, do you mind that I really don't mind?
Out of my mind
Panic
I'm not gonna ask, you ask
Are you now or have you ever been
A member of the three headed mind pollution?
Three headed mind pollution, out of my mind
I'll take a double three headed mind pollution
Extra chili and cheese, to go!

Change Your Mind
When you get weak, and you need to test your will
When lifes complete, but theres something missing still
Distracting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Convincing you (change your mind)
When youre confused and the world has got you down
When you feel used and you just cant play the clown
Protecting you from this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Protecting you (change your mind)
Restoring you (change your mind)
Revealing you (change your mind)
Soothing you (change your mind)
You hear the sound, you wait around and get the word
You see the picture changing everything youve heard
Destroying you with this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Destroying you (change your mind)
Embracing you (change your mind)
Protecting you (change your mind)
Confining you (change your mind)
Distracting you (change your mind)
Supporting you (change your mind)
Distorting you (change your mind)
Controlling you (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
The morning comes and theres an odor in the room
The scent of love, more than a million roses bloom
Embracing you with this must be the one you love
Must be the one whose magic touch can change your mind
Dont let another day go by without the magic touch
Embracing you (change your mind)
Concealing you (change your mind)
Protecting you (change your mind)
Revealing you (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind (change your mind)
Change your mind, change your mind

Change your mind, change your mind

Why Surprised?
After democracy slash capitalism
has installed aided dictatorship
in foreign focus interest country
after dictator has turned upon
brutally suppressed own people...
why are you surprised puppet dictator
suddenly turns upon bites hand that fed?
Is this not the nature of true megalomaniac?
Distempered dictator dislikes taking orders.
Your psychopathological puppets condition
characterized by delusional fantasies wealth
power omnipotence tortures kills opposition.
Consider your puppets obsession with grandiose
trinkets extravagant distractions actions ruthless.
Did history not warn with enough dark parallels?
The word megalomania derived from the Greek
words megalo meaning large and mania meaning
madness frenzy; were these not warnings enough?

Election Time, Mother's Concern
Intrepidity is scarce
in the ebulliency of mothernism pacific auscultation outrightly lacking
in the concern of a caring mother
multiple anxiety craves in
in the clime of chromic cities
the air of egregious states
the naturalty of maledicted nation
particularly in tempus of electioneering where,
cadaverous polls frighten thumb printers
carnivorous contenders allay phobia in the aura
megalomaniac looters eye political cushions
impulsive poly-thieves breathe at the helm of brutality
blood and aqua exist in the bag of synonyms certainly,
mother’s concern in necessary plausibility
and maternal restriction to vote in oodua land in obligation only,
very unfortunate the irony of politics is,
and as a patriotic citizen from a caring mother,
how regretful my situation cries

Too Much On My Mind
Theres too much on my mind,
Theres too much on my mind,
And I cant sleep at night thinking about it.
Im thinking of the time,
Theres too much on my mind,
It seems theres more to life than just to live it.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can say.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can do
About it,
About it.
My thought just weigh me down,
And drag me to the ground,
And shake my head till theres no more life in me.
Its ruining my brain,
Ill never be the same,
My poor demented mind is slowly going.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can say.
Theres too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can do
About it,
About it.
Theres too much on my mind.

My Mind
there is so much i want to say
but my mind gets in the way
i want to tell u how much i care
but my mind won't let me share
beeing with you seems like a dream
but my mind gets in between
beside you is where i want to be
but again my mind wont let me
i want to hold you trough the night
but my mind fights with all it's might
i want our love to be forever
but my mind is mean and clever
and prevents me from what i want to say
by taking my true and only voice away
therefore i will never be able to say
what i truly wanted to say on this day
because my mind keeps blocking me....all the way

A little something, anything, anything, I'll try all...
I ain't got nowhere to go from here
I'm just about this far from drowning in my very own tears

Oh, once inside, I'm out of my mind, yeah...

Out of my mind...
Where do I go? Where do I stay?
I got no place to lay in the hay
Where do I go to soothe my head?
Guess I'll turn on music instead
Where do I see? Where do I shine?
No one wants to take my mind...
Where do I go? How do I feel?
Guess I'll waste away in here
Out of my mind... (11x)
Out of my mind every single time

Control Domination By Violence Alias CIA World Net
Why does the covert
Cream Icing Agency
insist on killing writers
journalists novelists
with a mandate necessary
a pulse world conscience
in phony fake suicides
hardly original Old Bean?
Or creative use of talent
why not flip recruit a few?
Makes a nice change from
megalomaniac dictators
corrupt foreign governments
renowned for suppression
torture corruption civil rights
violations of their own citizens.
The free pen is indeed
mightier than the sword
but you already know
that wet work G Man.
Is that why your agency fears
independent voice of integrity?
Ethics streets above dirty deeds
black ops covert secret CIA policy.
Integrity writers must reclaim
high moral sacrosanct ground
government policy ends justifies
means left so dismally vacant.
