if i had an eye
i would see
yet i have two and remain blind

if i had a brain
i would think and discriminate for myself
yet my two lobes accept a drip-feed from the matrix
and believe its fictions

if i had a heart i would feel
and empathise with the suffering of others
yet i am insensitive as my heart was stolen
for transplant to the highest bidder

if i had a soul i would know god
and delight in its creation
but i remain a modern man
as hollow and empty as a reed
