[Pilot]

The pilot commands
A robot to function
As they see fit
But when the pilot cannot be trusted
How will anything get done?
That is the brain.

Don't trust the mirror

I look at myself in the mirror,
and my inner judge, the ego
dislikes some parts of the reflection.
By contrast, when I look for a minute more,
and I observe the ego,
and I set a distance
between what is an illusion [ego]
and what is 'real' [soul],
I see that
Higher Consicousness loves me all.

INTEGRATE YOUR SOUL INTO THE SCHEME OF LIFE

- the illusionist

All those dreams of how I'll meet you are keeping my chest calm

Stimulated

Simulated:
The feeling's real, reality's not.

I super hate it:
I am the one left here to rot.

Participant:
Volunteered to die because life *****.

A simulated reality that never stops.

Sunshine, Unicorns, and Rainbows

A life so bright,
It burns my eyes

A home so wonderful,
the changing colors-
my most honored prize

A melody so sweet,
I can feel my heart bleed
-
While Unicorns and Rainbows fill the air with glee

Although all that sounds so magical,
I believe it’s called a dream for a reason
-
But I keep lying to myself,
Indulging in a world so impractical
