The Absurd

You are the absurd
The plateau. The pinnacle. And the nadir
All simultaneously born, lived, and died
The struggle for purpose in impossibilities
The impossibilities in the purposeless struggle.

You are the absurd
The shadow in a world without sun
The reflection in the black mirror
Tempest torn. Tormented by the idiot’s perfection
Perfection being the idiot, the tempest and the torment!

You are the absurd
The flickering, flameless candle
The paradox of time moving constantly forward
Only to Repeat, and Repeat, and Repeat
The night followed by the night followed by the night!

You are the Absurd
The Demon, Hero, and the Heroine
Unceasing, relentless, rebellious
Set in the only purpose
Knowing that there is no purpose
