I Am Your
Tenant
I am your tenant FPT ~ Poem©1992
I pay no
rent
Inhabiting your every
pore
Pressuring you from the
core
Of tangled thoughts
With
a worrisome warrant
For your
unrest
I've got your
attention
But I want more
To
see you writhe and squirm
Inside
out naked in thought
I keep
pushing up
As you push me
down
Further inward to the
bowels
Of your consciousness
I
secrete confusion
You wipe me
out
But I keep coming as
long
As your mind is
awakened
By the jolts of terror I
send
Through your endings
If
you weren't so sensitive
to suggestion
It wouldn't be so
easy
I prey on your active
mind
It never stops
thinking
So I come
uninvited
Before you realize
it
I've moved in
I am your
tenant
Oh I pay no rent
You
can't evict me
I've got no
intent
You are the landlord of
your mind
Yet there's always a
vacancy
As long as you keep
thinking.....
and
thinking.....
and
thinking.....
and
thinking.....
