Exposed. Let me escape From myself and my woes. Let me dig a hole And climb in carefully - Close the hatchet, Until everyone forgets me. Then, I can re-emerge: Reborn, renewed - A brand-spanking-new Updated 2.0 version of A human That internally combusted and malfunctioned and wanted The off-button. But I don’t have one. Please install one? But I can. I must. I wait, I sit, I smile. Stationary, staring, unmoving - Waiting for the moment when It all melts away, Flesh to bone, Bone to dust To atom to atom to atom to… Quark.
Quack! A duck is born. Ugly duckling to majestic Prawn. To mouth, to Sea. See what he can see, Through his one-eyed squint Of cynicism, Munching, lunching - On an item he examines but does not create - On his own, at least. But don’t we all create? My body will be Another body will be Another body A…
Body Of water, gushing through a Rock - rotating rock, In a place in space, In a time in a Wineglass, hourglass, Grain to grain to atom to subatom. Again, again, again, From one of the smallest - the smallest in existence - The smallest that contained the seeds of the largest; The seed of all there is - The seed of sentimental sentience, And everything else… Singularity. So dull, so sparkling like Stardust. Dust again.
Hello dust, it’s me again ;)
