I love the way I change the universe around me. My body’s great because it creates a negative space within the universe that’s mine for me to be in, my hands are great because they can change the universe around me as I go, my mouth is great because it lets me consume the universe and make it into my own, and my voice and words are great because they allow me to change the universe for other people. There’s a lot of frustrating limits on these things, but what I already have at my disposal is pretty fucking rad.

The text reads,
“YOU WERE FRANTIC AND FOOLISH, YOU KEPT NO TRACK OF TIME, YOU RAN YOUR DELICATE BODY INTO ITS NATURAL END,
YOU BURNED ALL YOUR CANDLES TO STUMPS, YOU ARE TIRED AND HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO LAY DOWN,
YOU HAVE EARNED THIS REPERCUSSION, THIS REWARD, THIS RECKONING,
YOU FINALLY NEED TO KNOWHOW TO DECAY GRACEFULLY
LIE STILL (x13) ”
