[Akira The Don, Comicbookgirl19 - Reverend Mother lyrics]
Seductive whiles of a courtesan
With the untouchable majesty of
A virgin Goddess
Holding these attributes in tension
So long as the powers of her youth endure
For when youth and beauty have gone
She will find that the place between
One occupied by tension
Has become a wellspring of cunning
And resourcefulness
Many have marked the speed
With which Muad'Dib
Learned the necessities of Arrakis
The Bene Gesserit of course
Know the basis of this speed for the others
We can say that Muad'Dib learned rapidly
Because his first training
Was in how to learn
And the first lesson of all
Was the basic trust that he could learn
It is shocking to find how many people
Do not believe they can learn
And how many more believe
Learning to be difficult
Muad'Dib knew that every experience carries
Its lesson
Greatness is a transitory experience
It is never consistent it depends in part
Upon the myth making imagination
Of human kind
The person who experiences greatness
Must have a feeling for the myth he is in
He must reflect what is projected upon him
And he must have a strong
Sense of the sardonic
This is what uncouples him from
Belief in his own pretensions
The sardonic is all that permit's
Him to move within himself
Without this quality
Even occasional greatness will destroy a man
