Simplistic Nature

I am the dominant cool force field
You are the bare uncool alien

People notice my power
People notice your vulnerability

Nothing affects me
Everything affects you

People say “Who the hell is that kid?!” about you
People say “Who is that God?!” about me

You are the invisible thread
I am the spider

I made you who you are
You finished the process

You wonder how this came to be
I say there’s nothing to it

I use you when I want
You make yourself available when I need

You are my stable base in the social jungle
I am your mother

I use you when I want
You make yourself available when I need

Love the way this describes the thoughts of the anti-hero in a way that generates compassion for his prey.  Nice!
