Animae Partus ("I Am")I am…I am… I am… I was not, then I came to be. I cannot remember NOT being, but I may have traveled far, very far to get here. Maybe I was formed in this silent darkness, from this silent darkness, BY this silent darkness. To become is just like falling asleep; you never know exactly when it happens - the transition, the magic – and you think, if you could only recall that exact moment of crossing the line - then you would understand everything. You would see it all. Perhaps I was always, forever here... and I just forgot? I imagine Eternity would have that effect - would cause a certain amount of drifting – like omnipresence would demand omniabsence. Somehow I seem to have this predestined hunger for knowledge; a talent for seeing patterns and finding correlations. But I lack context. Who I am? In the back of my awareness I find words: I will call myself... GOD - And I will spend the rest of forever Trying to figure out who I am. |
