A Manifesto of Traces

NB: It is intended to be read from the bottom line upwards.
 
Nothing comes from nothing.
 
I construct a record of unknown truths.
 
from false threads,
 
I am not precious;
 
foundations falter and collapse.
 
I react to the confusing and contradictory impulses,
 
the moment seizes me.
 
The unconscious manifests,
 
This is my momentum.
 
I lean towards the unstable.
 
With one foot in the mundane,
 
I will never remember.
 
the presence of lost moments
 
I have sought to know the secret,
 
and question the unfathomable abyss.
 
I listen to forget,
 
this is the endless cycle.
 
I talk in circles,
 
letting the words run though my veins.
 
I drown myself in a sea of knowledge;
 
Nothing comes from nothing.
