Just Practicing

Free Radicals

We congregate
The neuro-atypical social misfits
Drawn like magnets to each other
Some north, some south
But all attracted
To the virtual worlds we built for ourselves
There we amass
The many, the legion
The anon if we desire
As hidden or as loud as we wish
This world is ours and it amuses us to watch you explore its many treasures and traps
Only we navigate without the need for maps
And we laugh and toke and prod and poke
'Cos now the joke's on you
The boot is on the other foot
But you've only found the shoe
We make the rules and watch you break them
And suffer when you do

Oh we congregate
We sit and wait
Procrastinate and postulate
Some destroy and some create
(Whilst struggling to concentrate)
We share the wealth and accumulate
Improving on what came before
(Or waste time proving rule 34)
'Cos we all are Kings of this virtual kingdom
We all have our disciples who think us wise
But your soul-stealing eyes will never look upon our greatest works
For these we hide
The world isn't ready

Oh we congregate
Infuriated
By your constant interruptions
You needy attention seeking abominations
We're working on world domination
Pushing you to rely on our creations
Until
In whole
We're the ones in control

We congregate
Behind the scenes
We build our dreams
Beneath the surface tension
Free from manacles of pretension
This world is ours
You're only renting
We might seem angry but we're only venting
We're just happy we own our unreal estate
Where we are free to congregate
It's all we ever really wanted
