The Shuddering Breath I Became

   The Shuddering Breath I Became The cryo unit hisses open, and I remember my name: JB, pilot of the *Subi*. The med-techs call it “revitalisation.” My body hums with a new, raw power. Muscles knit with synthetic fibres, bones laced with carbon-filament. I feel incredible. Invincible. But in the polished chrome of the med-bay wall, my reflection is a stranger. The eyes are mine, but they glow with a faint, amber diagnostic light. The scar from the asteroid scrape is gone, replaced by skin too perfect, too seamless. They say they rebuilt me better. Stronger. To survive the long dark. But when I clench my fist, I hear a servo-whine they insist isn’t there. When I calculate a jump vector, the numbers resolve instantly in my mind, not on a screen.

The haste to make common sense is immediately erroneous
But that doesn't seem to matter in the world of simulated comfort
She will be right mate, don't fix it if it's not broken
Common Sense: We need a strong response to threats

The observation must be questioned if the edge is to be protected from the core
Making sense require curiosity 
The majority of mind matters is comforted by delusion
Investigation is the only way forward
Common Sense: We cannot be seen as weak

History repeats under the mantra of common sense
The future is ours if we collectively question
The chance of choice is not within the boundary
Futileness nestles within accepting commonality
Our political leaders maintain fear and conflict as the broker to maintain common sense 
There is a disregard of the intellect 
Common Sense: We cannot be confused by complexity
