“Do it,” says one.
“Don’t do it,” says two.
“This isn’t what is supposed to happen,” says three.
“Don’t listen to them, the time is now,” turns four.
“I can’t let you do this to yourself,” says five.
“You deserve this,” says six.
“Think about the people you are hurting,” seven suggests.
“They deserve it too,” eight scowls.
“Please come down and think about this,” pleads nine.
“Jump,” says ten.
A council of ten within my mind, coming to a draw.
Perfectly stuck in division and decision.
