It’s a constant headache that never ebbs.
No matter how I try to medicate it it’s always pounding
pounding
pounding.
It’s been making it difficult to sleep.
They’ve been making it difficult to sleep.
He’s been making it difficult to sleep.

The author's comments:
An open mind is the most wonderful thing any human can possess. It is not only a freedom we can give to ourselves, but to others. The only problem with an open mind is that matter is sure to fill it at some point and the pressure from that building matter is sure to give you a headache.
