Every apparent me is Pinocchio
Proving to itself and apparent others that it's real, that it has a life
This can appear to show as being humble and kind, it can also appear
To be arrogant and selfish
All imaginary characters are drunkenly showing up, with false posses of
Having control and choice
Pinocchio once said, I'm a real boy
This is what the illusory self is protesting for, reminding itself over and over again
That it's real, it exists
Prove yourself brave, truthful and unselfish and someday, you will be a real boy
Sound familiar?
Prove yourself?
From an early age, we were given the same artificial crap
One day, you'll need to take control of your own life
You'll have responsibility and there will be consequences
Poor Pinocchio, that's not the story he signed up for
In every story, there's a past, present and future
For an individual person who has free will and choice
Sometimes in the story, there's an apparent seeing, that you
Just like Pinocchio, are not pulling the strings but are being pulled
By the strings
