You cannot make people want
What they do not want
And wanting it on their behalf
When you secretly want what they want
Is a selfish wish that your dreams come true
By way of imposing a false consciousness
Lived as a nightmare
By those who don’t share the disavowed dream
Of a world where the reality principle
Has been replaced by one principle:
Your wish is our command
In reality, they want what they want–
Like you, they want it all
But, mercifully
It all belongs to God
As do we all
So, you can keep trying to kill reality’s messenger
But you’re only killing yourself
Because the message
And its messengers
Are eternal
