I Am The Poet Poem by Gunadi Widyanto

I can clearly see the world is drowning deeper and deeper into darkness.
Can we ever break free from this magnificent slavery?
I am the poet, like a shot to the head, I never miss.

Worship me. I am your god and my soul is colder than ice.
You have sold your soul to me, now I can set you free...
I can clearly see the world is becoming darker and colder.

Get inside the four walls, get into the game, open the device.
You are my pawn, you are the mouse in my automatic laboratory.
I am the poet, like a shot to the head, I never miss.

Tell all your friends, simplicity is where I lies.
Do not hesitate, my friend, I can give you endless possibility.
I can clearly see the world is falling deeper into the abyss of darkness.

Give up everything you have to me, even your loved ones, summarize.
Talk through me, worship me, forget their faces and reality.
I am the poet, like a shot to the head, I never miss.

Never look at them in the eyes, close your ears to their advice.
I am your new god, all humans must obey me, for I give them conformity!
I can clearly see the world is drowning deeper and deeper into darkness.
I am the poet, like a shot to the head, I never miss!
