I got home tonight
Walked in front of the mirror
And undressed
Out of my skin
Leaving my corpse
Lying on the floor
I sit next to it
Opening my eyes
To release the water
That have short-circuit
The wires of my mind
I take a deep breathe
And count to three
As I gaze into the mirrors depths
Reflections of my soul emerge
Skinless and vulnerable
I confront myself
Causing my memory to surge
I don’t recognize this person anymore
Dropping the hard drives into the degausser
Old files displaying
An error occurs
“Are you sure you want to erase memory?”
CTRL+ALT+DELETE
I have finally set myself free
Of the AI who controls my mind
Named:
Victim mentality
