What is this mythic spice?  Is it Posh? Sporty? Scary?

NOTE: the author has never seen "Dune" & has no idea what she is talking about.
But she is pretty sure Sting was in the movie & there was a war over spice or vanilla extract or something.

I: Spice

That's all we ever really needed... that's all there ever really was.

Spice, my reason for living, my alibi, my home... spice...

When did I start living? Really living? I felt so dead until now. there was nothing... no... there was no... spice...

But now...

It consumes me...

The desire... the spice... at night curled up into my shattered dreams I call it out... the name... the spice... oh dear God, the spice...

I never stop thinking of the spice... it knows me so well... it knows... knows everything... so i fear it... love it... despise it... the spice

The spice calls to me in the night... shaking... a broken man... a worthless soul... I reach out to it's siren's song... it sings these words:

Oh
I feel like I've been locked up tight for a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone To release me
You're licking your lips and blowing kisses my way
But that don't mean I'm gonna give it away
Baby baby baby (baby baby baby)
Oh whoa
My body's saying lets go
Oh whoa
But my heart is saying no

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
You gotta make a big impression
Gotta like what you do

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Gotta rub me the right way honey
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come come come on and let me out

Music's playing and the light down low
Just one more dance and then we're good to go
Waiting for someone
Who needs me
Hormones racing at the speed of light
But that don't mean its gotta be tonight
Baby baby baby (baby baby baby)

Oh whoa
My body's saying lets go
Oh whoa
But my heart is saying no

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle (I'm a genie in a bottle)
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me I can make your wish come true
Just come and set me free baby
I'll be with you

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Gotta rub me the right way honey
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come come come on and let me out

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Gotta rub me the right way honey (If you wanna get with me)
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come come come on and let me out

Oh whoa
My body's saying let's go
Oh whoa
But my heart is saying no

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle (I'm a genie in a bottle)
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true (Oh)
You gotta make a big impression
Gotta like what you do
Oh yeah
If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
Just come and set me free baby I'll be with you

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come come come on and let me out


Unable to cover my ears to escape the sweet lyric trap, I moan... wrought with longing & disgust... please..

...the spice...

So is this all there is? This war for the spice? I'd never complain, never refuse to give my life on the sandy battlefields that the spice has given birth to... but only... for the spice... I don't understand, why?

WHY?

Why have I never known anything but this fight for my precious spice? Why is this spice such a cruel mistress? Why! I beg!

...why...

I have given so much... hurt so many people I love for spice... still there are no answers...

why must I fight?

why must I die?

why must my hands be steeped in the blood of my countrymen, my brother, my father, my children, Sting?

still there are no answers

NO ANSWERS!

...no...
