Human Autopilot

It's interesting how a person can move in a steady rhythm without a thought to the matter How autopilot is as real of a thing to the human person as it is to a plane How this constant unconscious movement often pulls us thin to the point where we might shatter And how we don't even realize it's happening as we find ourselves driving along in the wrong lane It's interesting... It's interesting how we can watch our feet moving step by step but not register at all that we're walking How we can clearly see in retrospect all the things we were blind to as we mechanically trudged by How the mindless persistency of consistency causes us to look at nothing gaulking And how we can pass by everything and still miss it all without even a try It's interesting...
