Reality Machine

Catch the buts
within your mind
before it shuts
and you will find

that everything
has come to be
the way you chose
unconsciously.

Now watch your thought
and know its tricks:
where it's caught
and how it sticks.

Go in and clean,
and this you must,
this gray machine
that drives your lust.

Then all you want
will come to be;
a flowing font,
eternally.

So free your soul
to soar among
the good, the whole,
the ever-young

And while we're at it,
lest I bitch:
please see to it
that I am rich.
