In a single moment trillions of screams will echo away

In a single moment trillions of screams will echo away

They will be lower and lower until there is no one left to hear them

I find comfort in the fading candlelight

Since in the end it will all go away

Washed away into blissful void

 

All the unfulfilled desires, the regrets of words untold

the rejections, and the secrets

the bitter love stories, and the nice ones too

All the last words, and the first words

All the screams, and the wounds

All the religions, all the books

All the blood, the enslavement of flesh

All the discoveries, the fun times had

Will fade away

Into sublime nothingness

 

The last view will be seen

The last thought will be had

The last kiss will have been planted

The last loved one will die

The last drink will be drunk

 

 

And then the great work will be complete

Then our mother nothingness will heal our bruises

Of her child, the crease of being

 

All the losers and the idiots

All the awards and accomplishments

All the envy and the love

Nothing will be left ill

Nothing will feel frustrated

No fortune or virtue

No passion or sorrow

Or apathy or guilt.

 

The jazz of fear and freedom will end at its due time

With no one to mourn the death of all things.

The chasm is what gives the show of fireworks

Illusions and made-up laws its divinity.

The chasm lies repressed within all of us.

That is why it can be felt aeons before.

The existence of inexistence bears resemblance to divine salvation.

ASMR and the last frontier of Capitalism (first draft)

-
Jonathan Carry claims  [see "Late Capitalism and the Ends of Sleep"]  that sleep is the last frontier of capitalism, for as Mark Fisher and the Coronavirus pandemic demonstrates, this first concrete part of economic production has now flooded into the ontological realm and infested psyche and subconscious into a world that we can no longer imagine as different. It is to say that the thing that constitutes the way we think (and more particularly the way we desire) and the way things are in-themselves and for-themselves are oriented towards this force of capital (basically the way that things come [and are justified for having and existence] into being is for capitalist production). The only exception and relief of the neurotic anxiety of capitalist reproduction being the time we dedicate to sleep. Jonathan Carry's thesis is centred around how in the past couple of centuries, sleep within society has rapidly been a decreasing factor in people’s lives. He claims that it is...

Lonely souls!

-
  Lonely souls! Everyone just goes around doing stuff — despite knowing they are going to die. Because they know they can never do anything but occupy their restless minds. This is the reason love is so urgent, even to mishappen souls such as mine. ‘Cause without love and eros, souls flatten into a single dimensional line. Lonely souls merge with the background out of focus tones of black and grey intertwined.

From narrative to simulacrum: a comparison

-
  Social media posts are a novel and unusual phenomenon, memes are filling our time what was until now the place of films or books. However, unlike the example of films or books that show us the vision of the author behind them, memes capture our attention for a split second just to be replaced by a new icon or symbol, the latter are also authorless, vague in their origin. This new form of information is characterized by being higher in quantity; as a matter of fact, 90% of all data hitherto created was generated in the past 2 years. [C. Johnson 2021] Furthermore, data plays a centre stage role in our economies, our governments our wars and our lives. Every day it seems more and more like we live in the reality that philosopher Jean Baudrillard once pronounced,  “We live in a world where there is more and more information and less and less meaning.” [J. Baudrillard 1985]  It is necessary to understand the similarities between social media (the democratic production of con...
