Concepts orbiting in an isolated space The empty air smells like uncertainty Droning like distant dissonant shouts from outer space A train of meaningless code flows life-likely Through a pit in my stomach The darkest black hole is an orb made of heaviest matter possible Condensed and concentrated nothingness It's track is not set on a straight line Neither is it blurry It's thin and wiggly It's cut to a thousand pieces Scattered through time and space And I have built an empire upon it called life And I know it will crumble under its own weight Spires Spikes of life called memories soar high on a brittle foundation And at the core Overloads and explodes A single node Overthinking and overheating until it blows Functions recursively until it breaks Nothing flows
I look back Still nothing
Written while listening to "The Faust Tapes" by Faust
