Muses, let my thoughts flow as if of ink Like the great philosophers, into my mind I sink To see what lies within the areas where few dare to go, For introspection is a hard seed to grow While we think we know what makes us tick, The reality oftentimes makes us sick The hatred, sadness, and thoughts of death Leave the sourest of tastes on the sweetest of breath But with these few words I hope you will see, The truth in the enigma that is my psyche For while from all other arts I do refrain, These are the sad imaginings of a tortured brain.

Introspection
Muses, let my thoughts flow as if of ink Like the great philosophers, into my mind I sink To see what lies within the areas where few dare to go, For introspection is a hard seed to grow While we think we know what makes us tick, The reality oftentimes makes us sick The hatred, sadness, and thoughts of death Leave the sourest of tastes on the sweetest of breath But with these few words I hope you will see, The truth in the enigma that is my psyche For while from all other arts I do refrain, These are the sad imaginings of a tortured brain.
