Blood from the walls runs tirelessly through my languid mind.
Like a stone at the bottom of a stream that worries of the current's corruptive force.
Is it the shore that pull towards it the innocence of the ocean,
or is it the retiring wavelets that retreat from corruption.
A reassuring comment with a tone enshrouded in glibness is far from reality,
but is a necessary means to the end that is existence.
Perturbed, as we may be, we wade in the hazy shallows,
hoping, praying to a god inside ourselves not to take the inevitable false step,
and empty ourselves into the vast receptacle of eternity, bringing forth the consciousness we seem to desire.
The battle between validity and irrelevance is one fought at wit's end.
Contemplative efforts that profit from confusion.
Trying to find meaning in what does not and recognizing hope where there is none.
Onward we continue as the path begins to crumble outside of our peripherals.
Is it we that seek the void, or is it in fact, the void that seeks me?
