Imagine a conspiracy.
Now set aside the specifics.
You believe that others
are plotting against you,
violating your rights
and restricting your freedom.
You feel you must save yourself,
your family, the republic, humanity.
Why?
What is so great about humanity
that you take it upon yourself to save it?
Perhaps the conspiracy
is making life seem worth defending,
when in actuality, life doesn’t NEED defending.
Here’s what I believe.
I believe that I imagine everything I perceive.
I do not deny
that I imagine conspiracy,
therefore my imaginary conspiracy
must serve me somehow.
Conspiracy proves that nothing
is out of my control unless I imagine it so.
And so I do.
Thank you, conspiracy.
