about

A song about legacy.

lyrics

Write your name upon the scroll,
Take it with you where you go,
Make your mark and daub some stark...
.... blots and blotches, dots and crotchets.

A behemoth that ticks,
The cosmic metronome ticks on,
Your face pixelated,
Photoshopped out of annals,
Your manuscript cast aside amidst the noise,
Your words ebb away,

And contently you sigh because....
.... at least you will now live on....

.... live on, in avatars, databases, charters, and watch-lists,
This is the mark you've daubed,
The blots and blotches,
Transduced and reduced to skeletal data.


And contently you sigh because....
.... at least you will now live on....
