A Sovereign Thing
What are your thoughts on the self?
Who is it that knows the that the ego stands
As the chief executive officer of the soul?
Or when the mind functions and then demands
For the selfish person to be made whole?
Self-interest is the only answer to
Calamities and strife of the spirit.
Selfishness echoes absolute and true.
But the sound is made for those who hear it.
Clarion calls for self-preservation
Still ring out in the thoughts of a real one.
It is with the signs of reservation
That selfishness should be not left undone.
The self is a sovereign thing that exists.
But only in the one who just persists.

Smartystan
The gleam from the streets of Smartystan sparked the brain. Platinum and diamond streets always seemed to drive thought in the city-state-nation. It meant that vehicles could rove over the avenues and boulevards with ease and become not a distraction but a reminder of how clean and well-kept even the alleyways and back lots had been.
