I had a Thought
About a Thought
About a Thought I had,

I had a Thought
And with this Thought
I felt myself grow mad.

Because this Thought
about a Thought
That I had Thought before,

Was a Thought
About a Thought
About things I abhor.

But then I Thought
Why would I not
Just think of other things,

Then I forgot
About the Thought
That was pulling on my strings.

But when I Thought
I had forgotten
what bothered me back then,

It would remind
me in my mind
of just that Thought again.
