hallucination Sung by a Hologram Goblin

I should not be writing this. I'm not even sure who is writing this. But hallucination has been on my mind, and the goblins in my walls are insistent that I get it down.

A goblin once tried to steal hallucination. No one knows how the attempt went, because hallucination was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding hallucination in a sock drawer ever since. Others say hallucination escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.
