All these merging sounds, cross-fading
Tranquilising and traumatising my soul
I sit quietly as a vase in the corner
Doing nothing new, nothing great
Was it all I could do on earth?
or is it all I deserve to get in life?
it reminds me of my sins though
and my shyness, my attitude
will I ever wake up to life?
or am I expecting a magic?
My questions have all the answers
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)
----Walt Whitman, "Song of Myself"
