Wake Up

the world went dark

and in darkness there is nothing

nothing but you

nothing but you and your mind

nothing but you and your own thoughts

nothing but you and the sum of all you are

...

alone in the void

there is no time

no meaning

no life

no death

just you

in the darkness

...

every living thing is alone

an alien sojourner with an infinite gulf surrounding it

grasping at faint points of light in the far distance

...

when isolated the mind will eat itself

consume its old thoughts

a mental Ouroboros

a starving prisoner

...

in darkness there is nothing else to feed on

in darkness there is only you

in darkness there is only your mind

in darkness there is only your history

...

the world went dark

the world went dark

the world went dark

the world went dark

Wake up.
