NOOOOOOOOO | |
I have neither the time nor the desire, to relate in detail all of the adventures that have befallen me. The universes that I have passed into. The things that I have seen and experienced and learned on all of the worlds since I left the planet that I'd called home. Ever smaller cycles, infinite universes, neverending. Each presenting something new. Some queer variataion of life or intelligence. Life, Intellegence. Terms I once associated with things animate, things protoplasmic and understandable. I find it hard to apply them to all of the divergencies of shape and form and construction that I have encountered. Worlds, young, warm, volcanic and steaming. The single cell emerging from the slime of warm oceans, to propagate on primordial continents. other worlds innumerable. life divergent in all branches, from the single cell, amorphous globules, amphibian, crustecean, reptilian, plant, insect, bird, mammal. All possible variataions and combinations. Biological monstrosities indescribable! Other forms beyond any attempt of classification. Beyond all reason or comprehension of my puny mind. Essences of pure flame. Others, gasuous, incandecent and quiscent alike. Plant forms encompassing an entire globe. Crystalline beings, sentient and reasoning. Green shimmering columnar forms, seemingly liquid, defying gravity by some strange power of cohesion. A world of sound vibrations, throbbing, expanding, reverbrating in unbrokrn echoes that nearly drove me crazy. Globular brainlike masses, utterly disassociated from any material substance. Imterdimentional beings, all shapes and shapeless. Entities utterly incapible of registratin on any of my sences except the sixth, that of instinct. Suns dying. Planets cold, and dark, and airless. Last vestiges of once proud races, struggling for a few more meager years of sustenence. Great cavities, beds of evaporating seas. Small furry animals, scurring to cover at my approach. Desolation. Ruins, crumbling surely into the sands of barren deserts. The last mute evidence of vanished civilizations. Other worlds aflourish with life, blessed with light and heat. Staggering cities, vast populations, ships pawing the surface of oceans, and others, in the air, huge observatories, tremendous strides in the sciences, spaceflight, battles for the suprmecy of worlds, blasting rays of superdestruction, collision of planets, disruption of solar systems, cosmic anniliation. Light, space, a univerce with a tenious, filmy, something around it, which I burst through, all around me, not the customary blackness of outer space I had known, but light filled with the tiny dots that were globes of darkness, that were burnt out suns, and lifeless planets. Nowhere a shimmering planet, mowhere a flaming sun, only remote specks of black amid the high saturated emptiness. How many of the infinitly smaller atomic cycles I have passed into? I do not know. I tried to keep count of them at first, but somewhwere between twenty and thirty, I gave it up, and that was long ago. Each time i would think, this cannot go on forever, it cannot, surely this next time I must reach the end, but I have not reached the end. Good God, how can there be an end. Worlds composed of atoms, each atom similarly composed. The end would have to be an indestructable solid that cannot be, all matter divisible into smaller matter. What keeps me from going insane? I want to go insane. I am tired. A strange tiredness neither of mind nor body. Death would be a welcome releif from this endless fate that is mine. but even death has denyed me. I have sought it, I have prayed for it, and begged for it, but it is not to be. |
