Monkey See...

... Monkey desperately try to imitate but ends up failing miserably because it doesn't come from a place of authenticity.

Subsequently, in a search for self actualisation, Monkey frantically looks to a myriad of others to copy.

Plagiarising the habits of others, Monkey constructs an empty shell of a personality in a vain attempt to disguise the fragile truth of what Monkey really is.

Blinded by denial, Monkey continues to accumulate slithers of other personalities adding layer upon layer of traits seen in high regard by society, the media and Monkey's personal preference.

At first Monkey lives out the prime of its days using its social façade without any sort of profound self reflection. However, one day Monkey wakes up with the vague sense that its entire life has been a lie fuelled by vanity, superficiality and the pursuit of pleasure.

It dawns on Monkey that reality is, in fact, void of all meaning and what good the world can bring has been tainted by Monkey's selfish endeavour for individuality.

Frightened by the stark reflection of Monkey's true self, Monkey buries these feelings deep inside and falls even deeper into a blinding delusion. Monkey embraces its false identity and begins to create external enemies in opposition to Monkey's ideologies.

Monkey erupts in a flurry of war, violence and extreme prejudice. Monkey do.

However, the scratching truth in the back of Monkey's mind cannot be ignored. Monkey's destructive thought process begins to attack Monkey for a lifetime of denial and betrayal.

Internally, Monkey spirals into the dark abyss of Monkey's own corrupted and blackened soul.

Crippled with shame, guilt, and regret, Monkey dies old and alone wondering in the last moments of existence why Monkey denied the only thing Monkey ever truly had in the first place.
