A Universe Inside

Greetings Old soul, It has been a while since we’ve talked, and I’d wish to reforge our strained bond; you see, I have watched you day and night, dusk and dawn yet I couldn’t help but pity the thing you’ve become.

The state is transforming, dissociating, and changing every second; time waits for no one, my friend, even me. And because you’re in the middle of it all, I urge you - o sentient being - to feel everything within before your heat dies.

The heat flows from the hot reservoir to the cold, it cannot be reversed anymore, and so you lose it gradually as the world you once knew keeps expanding then loses touch with itself.

For it is a world inside a world full of mortal joy and woe.

But that’s okay. I do not wish for you to stay the same, after all, out of billions of possibilities, you survived and came to being. Living in mundane and constant euthymia isn’t an option. Observe, interact and experience with the real things around you, maybe you’ll find answers. Remember when you showed me what you have discovered over the years? The sparkly eyes of excitement always get me, the way you keep gushing over yourself and how you came to be, the gratitude you expressed towards the One who did it all… I can go on, but it won’t express how much I’m proud of you, friend.

But now, after seeing what your own kind did, you gave up experimenting. I’ll explain why: you were led astray from the truth which steered your core, hence your current state of distress and discomfort. Then, as long as your core is intact, and, however the entropy increases, I’ll remember you always.

But bear in mind,

You are a creation in itself, you don’t create.

What do I do with this love?

Today I woke up as one does. I had my cup of coffee, part of a routine I don't dare disturb. I wore the same outfit I had on yesterday, it wasn't hard to find it. It was right where I left it last night. And the night before. In a sad heap by the foot of my bed. I couldn't wear my rings, or anything on my wrist, its heaviness would make everything else unbearable. I left the house, keys jingling as I shoved them in my bag. I would struggle to fish them out of the mess when I get back, but that's something I'll have to figure out later. The bus is late, it always is. By the time I can see its carcass in the horizon, I've already developed a dull ache in my left knee. I wince as I climb the step. I pay the man whose face won't hold a place in my memories, they are already filled to the brim. I take a space to sway back and forth during a journey I know too well. The familiarity of it all is what makes it easy to navigate. It requires no effort to redo someth...

À ceux qui rêvent de bottes mal cirées, de veston médiocre et de chapeaux bas-de-forme (2)

Le videur me scrute avec ce regard d’homme habitué à voir les âmes chavirer. Il n’a pas besoin de parler. Son corps massif est une injonction silencieuse : l’heure est venue de quitter ce refuge de misère, d’aller s’effondrer ailleurs. Je lui rends un sourire absent, un rictus d’homme qui sait qu’il n’a plus rien à perdre. J’ai dépassé l’heure où l’on tolère les âmes trop pleines de regrets. Alors je me lève, lentement, comme si la nuit elle-même pesait sur mes épaules. Mon verre est vide, ma poche aussi. Je jette quelques pièces sur la table, mais elles ne font qu’un bruit sourd, comme un écho lointain. Dehors, la nuit s’étire, indifférente. La brume danse sur les pavés humides, et les réverbères projettent des ombres déformées sur les façades. L’air sent le bois mouillé et le charbon, un parfum d’hiver qui s’attarde. J’enfonce mes mains dans les poches de ma redingote élimée et me laisse avaler par la rue. Les pavés brillent sous l’humidité, scintillent comme s’ils reten...

The Last Words Of A Shooting Star

Would you cry if I die? As they lower me into the cradle of the cold earth, would yours be the strong arm holding the coffin, or the gentle hand wielding the shovel, pulling the covers over my stiffening body as I tether between two worlds? Tucking me into the sleep I’ve been dreaming of for far too long, finally reaping the overflowing interest I’ve been collecting for the sleepless sleep I’ve offered at the altar where even ghosts have ceased to kneel, where candles still burn at the foot of a throne long since crumbled to stone. Would you be so kind as to warm the muddied soil in your hands before closing the tomb? I run cold in my sleep, you see. I think that’s why sleep abandoned me the day my mother stopped tucking the corners of the blanket between the bedframe and the wall to ward off the chill that bled in through the stone. She used to seal me in tight until I could no longer roll around, my tiny body swaddled in stillness as I drift off to a dre...
