You think you are a rational being, whose every decision is based on cool, detached logic. But here's the truth: you are not so smart. You're just as deluded as the rest of us-- but that's okay, because being deluded is part of being human...


If sparrows fly on silent wings
then shouldn't phoenix glide with burning glory?
If the color silver is sleek and silent
then shouldn't red be strong and proud?
The meek, lonely one, on the back of a horse,
but the regal one, left all alone?
Why is the princess so fiercely rejected,
while the servant so easily accepted?
