An Eternalist
I have been an eternalist for many, many years, so many in fact that I have forgotten the number.My memory has reached such a state of corruption pierced and violated by an excessive history that each day seems a spontaneous miraculous occasion. I have now noticed my complete similarity with every other, as each day is a fellow of an infinite number of other days. I mean to say that I am no one and I am every one. I know the complete opacity of my singularity and I know the disappearance of every other self.
A suicide of dawn has gained a wide ascendary. An exterminating nihilism painted in utopianistic rainbows of essential technological toxicity is the weltanschauung of our era. What could one expect? When the human has abdicated to its own machinery, when code becomes more important than meaning, when all place is same place?
A nodding acquaintance with death exists in these somnambulists that surround me and that are me. There is the occasional acknowledgment, vague prescience of moments in a dream time that neither has any control over. This is the primary tyranny, the one that cannot be finished with, the one that we hear most clearly in the language of pain and the blunt cry of infants.
