Do you care to tell us who you are?
What your mind says when you're
not really there?
It's not just air

Cheap pink beads
fallen from a gown.
Yellow-brown hair
in your mother's painting:
"The Clown!"
These ideas drifted down -
from where? The scientists don't know,
at least not consciously.
Unless you wish to discuss whether
there's a third, then for now we'll say there's two kinds of
people: the ones who never censor themselves and the ones
who always do. Well which are you?
[okay okay - the truth is there's mostly the third kind of people, the ones that sometimes do and sometimes don't - I was just trying to stir something up]
