Baby I Am The Queen Of This Kingdom Poem by Naomi Waters

Baby I Am The Queen Of This Kingdom

Rating: 5.0


I am desperate for motivation
A kick so that I can stop being bored
I want to find my equal
A player of this game that knows it as well as I do
I constantly tell lies
Effortlessly weaving falsities without breaking a sweat
It is too easy to pull off
Can't somebody give me a challenge?
The grandest contest of my life
Come on people try to read me
I dare you to find my secrets
An impossibility for everyone except myself of course
This is my time to play
You should know a pro when they stand directly in front of you
I can't be that hard to beat
Come at me you foolish weaklings!
I put this show on, taking in the praise like a drug
Funny that you think im gonna share
Sweety I am a master at this for a reason
Try just try and I will kill you
I don't do mercy honey
I do allow people to walk away before it starts
I pity you
Darling you can't leave because you're in too deep

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I felt an unbelievable power within myself when I wrote this. This is how I feel about wearing my mask. i am flawless at it and very few can measure up to me. It was as if my demons were whispering to me and lending me there utter power and control when I wrote this, because now I am no longer scared of the secrecy

Exactly, your note about this piece. The 'speaker' reflects a sudden deluge of influence, a forceful drive on them. Quite persuading and awe-inspiring, Naomi. Wish I could dare, but that's a thought for another day. One word for this piece: power-packed.
