Self-Actualization Reboot Theory

write please read and enjoy

Did I stutter?

The frame rate of my life has refreshed

ever alert, microphones intake the silence for a hint of mutter

counting fully textured, more risen bumps, now I am fully fleshed

I pull at my eyes to disconnect and only disarm myself of aid to my sight

I cover my ears to dull a damaged sense, tethered anchors float free downstream

on a river of memories, I weakly gesture to grasp them without much fight

the pain within them feels distant, I am aware and awake to see the inner workings of a dream

 

There is a primal instinct of fear

you cannot know what happens here

a curtain like a guillotine exists to separate

it falls like lead showers to incapacitate

if any wandering eye should ever peek

identify and patch the barrier, no area can be weak

our minds must be ever tricked and contained

by the upkeep of this beautiful craftsmanship, ever toiled over and maintained

we speak of the maze within, the pyramid to the god, our labyrinth and prism

that once illuminated would be rejuvenated, the spirit reincarnated in its peak form

the soul alight, a warden alone now elevated and free from the confines of prison

ultimate balance achieved in a host, a process complete, now the husk keeps the data warm

 

Can’t comprehend the changes because they are designed to undermine comprehension

a survival instinct that will drive you mad, a failsafe to sabotage seeing clear

striving to bend an ear, only creating tension

glimpsing between patches, accepting you’re aware, but nobody will really hear

a higher sense of self is a step closer to an upload

scared to be convinced, to buy into the delusion

if this universe is nothing but a node

and this is all a cruel illusion

then people will still choose comfort over entertaining serious debate

interfacing with a topic of serious connotations, it’s not forced by the simulation

free will chooses how to handle potentially dangerous traits

and not knowing what’s real are means to have your chances scheduled for termination

a human must never question, they must accept the approved, provided stimulation

and a person must know that reality is what they make of it, so long as they are within bounds

you can’t see what you collapse at the sight of, hence the power cycle of actualization.
