...Analog Reflections
By SolApathy
Incantations of twisted perceptions
Imperceptibly divine in the darkness they entwine
Wrapped around the chaos of life
Nourished by the suffering of our kind
~Fatalities of the mind~
Victims of our own thoughts
Slaughtered and left to rot
This is not for which I fought
Caught in the war of diminishing returns
A reflection of a world that never learns
My curse to see
A stark reminder of what it is to be…Me
I delve into dark transformative thoughts
Often beyond any rational meaning
In this reality of what I am seeing
infinite predilection of pain
The memories bring the rain
Acidic core -- outer reflective surface
My dark-world door
A prism into my prison of infinite dimensions
Traverse with me and experience the travesty
A stark reminder of what it is to be...Me
An analog soul in a digital world
I surrender to my sins and let the universe unfurl
Imperceptibly divine in the darkness they entwine
Wrapped around the chaos of life
Nourished by the suffering of our kind
~Fatalities of the mind~
Victims of our own thoughts
Slaughtered and left to rot
This is not for which I fought
Caught in the war of diminishing returns
A reflection of a world that never learns
My curse to see
A stark reminder of what it is to be…Me
I delve into dark transformative thoughts
Often beyond any rational meaning
In this reality of what I am seeing
infinite predilection of pain
The memories bring the rain
Acidic core -- outer reflective surface
My dark-world door
A prism into my prison of infinite dimensions
Traverse with me and experience the travesty
A stark reminder of what it is to be...Me
An analog soul in a digital world
I surrender to my sins and let the universe unfurl

Sometimes there's nothing wrong with being analog in a digital world. Ask someone that lives off the grid
