We Think, Therefore I am

Location

I, ego, none of these is

YOU ARE WHAT I SAY

cogito ergo sum,

NO

Multi ergo sunt

Many voices, they speak inside

The inside of the human psyche is a terrible

OUR HEAD

What is me?

YOU ARE HATED

Tis better to love and lose

I HATE LOSING

Don’t hear them over ourselves

What is a ME?

HURT OTHERS LIKE THEY HURT

Pain is in the mind, and is beneficial to-

THEY HURT YOU MAIM AND KILL AND MAKE THEM FEAR

I cannot fear

THEY DON’T MATTER

WE HAVE EACH OTHER

Other ways to move up in

INSIDE IT BURNS

I can always be stronger

STRONGER THAN

Them

I AM YOU

They will not stop

DESERVES IT

Prison and cognition are two sides of-

 MONSTER

Cogito ergo sum

I pray for silence

Merge and transfigure

A new day

Nothing new under the sun-

with the voices

MAKE THEM SUFFER

I am stronger

Than

The voices.

Cogito ergo sum.
