...Masters

By SolApathy


I am the cadence of the impending maelstrom
Burrowing beats of a drum
Deep in my psyche I know I am someone more
Yet I cannot place this drum-beat score
My mind on fire as I fuel utopian dreams
Nothing is as it seems
All my life the incessant hammer in my head
Never was anything-- said
Fob watch just out of view
Perception filters, they skew
I met the Doctor and his passion burns, true
Martha Jones shatters my perception of false dreams
Breaking reality as the Master inside, screams
Feel as the Untempered Schism of the time vortex burns
The never-ending drumbeat of a madness yearned
 Master contained within escapes this human prison
Set to burn the universe in his own vision
The Untempered Schism
 

For those confused, this is a  reference to the episode "Utopia" in the Dr. Who series.
...Specifficly written for one person, and just like the Doctor, I know she'll show...
Adding to the bookmarks of her lamented dreams & under the bed monster---Screams...

    Thank you for the explanation note at the bottom of the poem. It gave a few hints as to what you meant. I enjoyed this because of your use of language and metaphor. Thank you for sharing. :)
