i see my paths and dance through them gathering lions from their den protecting us from our end so that we can all transcend and become beautiful matter again keep going please dont quit cant take another hit and if we do well make it through because we are protected by the trees escaping disease understanding weeds we work with them and shepherd the humans putting my hooves on ground steady and rhythmic sound feral and proud we work with them and shepherd the humans shepherding the humans id be bouncing off the walls if i had any id be bouncing off the id be bouncing off the walls if i had any id be bouncing off the walls if i had any id be bouncing off the walls if i had any id be bouncing off the walls if i had any i thought id be gone long ago hold onto those that feel like home and if you have none here is a moment of shelter good luck on your journey may you continue to persist in all forms

doll 02:52
am i a paper doll, cut my body out of a sheet my clothing made of skin am i a ball jointed, pose me however you like no lungs to say no but your own insecurities or am i a marionette, dancing for your pleasures or am i a sentimental fetish, crafted with hair and detritus when you are finished with me can i hold onto your soul or am i just a bunch of parts to you and if i fell apart would you put me back together im just a doll for you, the collective hivemind (i feel like im a doll being controlled by the hivemind black hole mirror your emotions crafting potions for the hive)
