I want to stay awake forever

Humanity, drag me not down

Let me go; Lord, allow me up

Can I see how the stars taste?

Let a meteor shoot through

My brain so finite

My energy so weak

always needy

of everything

sleep,

air,

food,

what of these supplies

are not spelled by words

were they not made by Word?

My aim is for glory eternal

Would you grant this?

I know the way up

is the way down

So this is my request

one that I know not

Keep me low

so that I may arise

By paradox

in ways unorthodox

This music shoots through this tube, right

then hits these buds in my ears

they start to shake and vibrate

into something coherent

something that makes me move and groove

i tap my foot and nod my head

these little beats

do this to me

keeps me from sleep so pleasant

to think of things so far

so distant

this length is not measured by miles

something abstract

loftier than what my mental faculties can hold

I want to stay awake and soak it all in

drink up the world

breathe in genius

spit truth

I want to catch difficulty by the throat

only to embrace him

have him sit next to me at lunch

and sleep next to me

for it is through difficulty

that I will travel the infinite

and taste the stars

I bet they taste like milk

My tongue will glow through my mouth

sparkles dribbling down my chin

licking up truth from lips

drench my mouth with this

but first drench me with difficulty
