If I could unzip my Skull

by Elijah - Not entered

If I could unzip my skull,
and peer into my brain.
Would I see intriguing sights,
or would I just feel pain?

Perhaps I would see cupboards.
Full of all my thoughts.
Or would I find that snag,
on which my tongue gets caught?

Or would my head be hollow,
with two windows for my eyes?
Perhaps I would see the demon,
that conjures up my lies.

I suppose I could spring clean.
Before putting back the roof.
Enabling me to tighten those screws,
that over the years had all come loose.

But I think it best to leave alone,
the vessel that holds my brain.
For if I pull everything apart,
I may not get it back together again!!

Reason for writing:

    Because I am of a curious nature!
