Recording
surroundings,
Reflecting
on experience,
It
simultaneously sees,
Thinks
and feels.
It
carries my history,
But
is it me?
Tell
me, "Who am I,
Uncomfortable
actor,
Or
observer of action,
Dimly
perceived?
We
need resolution,
Our dissonant chorus,
Who's
in control?
We
all need to know."
The
vacuum at least,
Can
absorb its surroundings.
My
hollow core,
Grasps
at nothing at all
.
I've
a ravenous emptiness,
I'm
desperate for something,
A
choice at the crossroads,
The challenge of change.
Nothing
new today, then,
Not
even a footnote,
The
custodian gasps,
Time
must move on.
The
future's beckoning,
And,
as yet, it's unwritten.
Shall
I spent more time in stasis,
Awaiting
events?
Perhaps,
now I'm unfettered,
I'll
speak to my guardian,
Prepare
plans for the future,
Avoid
the next step.
No,
it's time to take chances.
I'll
march with my chorus,
Recording's
for others,
It's
time to impress!
