I Look all Crazy<\/span>
 <\/span>
Don\u2019t tell me what to do.<\/span>
I am the voice of reason.<\/span>
 <\/span>
My one blind eye sees all.<\/span>
The other one sees nothing.<\/span>
 <\/span>
I look all crazy in<\/span>
the mirror. I am not who<\/span>
 <\/span>
I think I am. I make<\/span>
funny faces. I open up<\/span>
 <\/span>
the cabinet. I hide<\/span>
the poison pills there. There is<\/span>
 <\/span>
an invisible ghost<\/span>
there who basks in silence. I <\/span>
 <\/span>
keep the ghost inside there<\/span>
all alone and despondent.<\/span>
