Imagine walking into a space that is so familiar you can mentally construct it without its physical reality before you. But just as you enter that space, the subduing and soothing Familiarity metastasises into alien Familiarity. Its physical reality of concrete shapes melts into grotesque contours of a mutilated past, which you thought has been neatly tucked under the magical cloak of History, never to resurface in your life again. But History always finds a way to catch up with the present, or perhaps History is always there, a stone clinging onto your tail, which gets bigger and bigger as you walk further on, weighi

Cipher zero and the encrypted cipher I'd rather be incarcerated in the former cipher The field of nothingness For nothing can be worse than naught Yet I must concede How much I yearn to be at the epicentre of encryption For that iridescent palette of symbols lures me in

Well, I loved it so much, I decided to use a little of it in my own writing, just the wording of it. It was so beautiful.
