i want to be, like that. <br />like everything the ego of my eye tastes <br />i want to be like you, <br /> like them, <br />but i will never be unlike me... <br />but i want to be like that... like you, like them. <br />so i am.., i think, <br />nothing , but a mind, <br />a life, <br />their shaman, <br />her lover, <br />nothing, but a wrethched peon <br />forging steel through my bones <br />braiding will through their minds <br />but i still want to be..... <br /> like Ai Wei Wei, that tiger breasted throat, <br />That baritone abode of the red dragon <br />i want to be like that. <br />but im nothing, but a little fish <br />mining diamonds in their minds, <br /> moulding steel in their bones <br />but i want to be like you, like them <br />but i will never be unlike me, <br />but i want to be like that.. <br />playing hopscotch across the rainbow, <br />sommersaulting over the moon dazzling ambrosia <br />so, i am.... <br />i think, <br />nothing, but an id, <br />a confined anima, <br />drilling courage in my spleen <br />planting iron in their veins... <br />breathing fire through her womb, <br />steadfast....in my step as i climb my mountain <br />but i still want to be like you, like them, like that <br />so i am... <br />i think, <br />nothing, but a little sapien <br />with a pride of loins <br />forging steel through their bones <br />mining diamonds in their minds <br />spitting fire from my eyes <br />like you, like them, <br />like that...i<br /><br />elias galvez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-want-to-be-like-that/
