bap·​tism: an act, experience, or ordeal by which one is purified, sanctified, initiated, or named. floating in the vacuous flow of time - endless whispers and murmurs, trying to figure out which thoughts are mine, and which thoughts are planted by others. overwhelmed by the idea of being perceived. to relinquish control or to take control? we are nothing but one individual in the sea of billions. who's to say that this is worth our time? who's to say that we have purpose? i need a baptism to purify, to sanctify, to initiate, to name myself. to find purpose in this ocean of nothingness.
