Prospekt

I try to protekt
but that's not really
who I am,
what I mean,
what I stand for,
protekt and serve
epiphanies,
the coming of
wise men
who know not
what they do.

I try to protekt
and it all comes
alive and I feel
electric and
ready to take on
the world
like it wasn't
already mine.
I do what I can
and sometimes
it's enough.

I try to protekt
and it goes
like a rush
and feels better
which is what
I was going for
and hoping to
throw my hands
around the whole
world, like a
glove.
