Can you keep up?
I’ll need savants like me,
Mind-readers via Anxiety superpowers.
Who watch and know the subtleties –
Of psychology.
Calculate a half dozen variables,
Simultaneously.
People will strength of will to rival mine,
Who can take on a species,
And win.
Righteous hearts.
Who battle for the greater good,
Stand against tyranny –
Even the well-intentioned.
Those who can keep accounts.
Challengers of the status quo,
To help me build utopia.
And tear down archaic institutions.
Delicate souls,
Who practice self-awareness.
Look inwards and seek truth.
Who acknowledge the cosmic realities,
Of entropy.
A familiar old darkness we must cease.
I’ll need warriors,
Of martial prowess,
Tactical excellence!
Even if I have to train them myself.
Modern saints,
Secular to a fault.
Disciples of philosophy.
Who know Nietzsche from Socrates,
Know why we must quest –
And question.
I need villains,
Like myself.
Dark hearts who have known evil,
Yet chose the path of justice.
Thinkers,
Believers,
I will need the kindnesses,
Of actual support.
Not merely empty words.
False promises.
I’ll need the neurodiverse –
Those who see beyond norms and expectation!
They that see the world transparently,
Devoid of egoist trappings.
Helpers,
Truth-tellers,
The gifted.
I shall need them all.
Prodigies to uplift and ascend,
To grant the power –
To save the world.
The Gifted.
