Poem
Insomniac attack is back or Animalistical (I'm not even sure that is a real word but F.I.(that is an anachronism that means fudge it( unless you’re an adult then you know which word fudge is replacing(or a poor kid raised in the wrong environment in which case you have my deepest sympathies(which if I’m being honest isn’t very deep. Some peoples sympathy is as deep as the ocean, mine as deep as a glass of water(people often wonder if the glass is half empty or half full but given all the water frozen in the ice caps how come no one ask is the ocean 2/3 full or 1/4 empty(one last thing fish always see the ocean as full regardless of the anything) I'm beyond mythical I’m Animalistical Somewhat of a dull sphinx Or prophetic lynx The answer to my riddles Are riddles And the answer to those riddles Are more riddles Let’s get it out of the way And say It’s a riddle all the way down Which is not to say Anything I say Can be mistaken For something profound It’s a formless universe Without meaning Until you observe it otherwise And if your wise You’ll take care To the meanings you give And the meanings you accept When you see me And my magicians act My mouth is spouting out facts But those are just spoken to distract The thing they lack Is the thing you don’t observe I’m sure it seems All quite absurd Your brain is designed To find patterns And in the absence of such It just makes stuff up So how can you trust What you perceive Particularly When dealing with me Which is not to say Its not ok We’re all flawed In our own unique way (Is that a double negative Or a positive Or positively negative) Four lefts Make a straight Though some would say There is a problem With the way you navigate I would say I lost you But I don't think I ever had you Try three lefts And three rights I'm the animal king Of misinformation Like a platypus Look here I'm a duck Now look here I'm a beaver Now look here I'm an otter I can lay eggs Ok that's last part To much nonsense Even fur me so scratch it I can't my claws are poisonous Ok ok ok Here are your two problems One Your perception is limited A tiny bubble That needs to be burst So you can create A slightly bigger one Two The human brain Is susceptible To messages That are subliminal And you are constantly Under bombardment So I'm killing three birds With half a stone Making you smarter And deprogramming you If you think my math is wrong Your subconscious gets it Dumb people say Look at the big picture We say look at the biggest picture And you too Can be animalistical
