100 Word Song: Brilliant Mistake

The days of sanity pieced together by one tiny element are relatively unfathomable.  How could something so small make all the difference?  The right combination is essential and yet it’s nothing but a game of Russian Roulette.  Does anyone really know what they’re doing?  Thank God for it though.  If not for the missing link that rewires the brain, everything would be different; unworkable.  Yeah, there’s always the option of taking matters into one’s own hands.  But that’s a trick they do with mirrors and with chemicals.  Those days are over.  Gone down the rabbit hole. Alice has left Wonderland.
