Redundant from Redundant by Etienne Carstens

a calm collected failure
sterilized from virility
I've become an aperture
for life to seep on through

I will subside back to black
not a shimmer or a trace
you'll never know I was here
not even an atom displaced

yet from these musings come
a man that treads footprints
a simple voice after chorus
words aged before spoken

I cannot even resist it
I'm losing to the silence in me

I cannot even admit it
I'm reaching pure instability

the collapse of stringing sense
denial of inadequacies
how wonderful to be here
denying myself the intricacies

the trepidation halts
when it all falls to splinters
a decadent vessel sinks
as it's treading by its fingers

as light floods the eyes
the conclusion has begun
I was always just the same
a pure copy of everyone

I cannot even resist it
I'm losing to the silence in me

I cannot even admit it
I'm reaching pure instability

I cannot even deny it
I'm barely even me anymore

I cannot even dispute it
I'm playing others I've seen before
