Here's a quote from Slaughterhouse n°5, a book about the present, a book I really like. "Why me? Why you? Why us for that matter? Why anything? Because this moment simply is. Have you ever seen bugs trapped in amber?" Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, Trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why, there is no problem Lingering on this endless process. With lots of doubts, and lots of promises Here we are again Like a young trilobite whose fossil won't tell If it truly was made to sustain all that hell Like a dinosaur skull who thinks of itself Suspended between lime and mud and dirty clam shells Like Ötzi the iceman, whose expression won't change Like a badly stuffed saber-toothed, so frozen in rage Like hand silhouettes who slap the bare rock You growl and you swear to wear out the shock Like rules made of clay in the British museum Each cut is an action that stretches through eons Like paintings and jewels, aligned for devotion A glass case constrains their spellbinding potion Like capitals and columns, wood thresholds and bricks Like tourist resort islands, that float upon sticks Like anything that neatly piles up derelicts You're part of a giant mega hyper structure but probably just a quick fix Why me, why you, why anything, that's true Why me, why you, why anything, that's true Why me, why you, why anything, that's true Why me, why you, why anything, no clue That's true Like photos of players all perfectly aligned In albums of stickers whose blanks are to find Each pack of new faces sealed up undefined Its complete collection belongs to a mastermind Like queens in a deck that hope to hold hands Like domino tiles that aim to push back Like a pawn in its black square, all proud in defence You cheer and rejoy for what could come next Like Heisenberg said, he wasn't that sure, The moment you look at it, you make it impure Position, momentum, will hide and endure Your intrinsic qualities are something obscure Like atoms and bosons so fast but quite still They don't have a clue their host's mentally ill As part of a giant slug without living will His memories are looping like a water mill Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, Trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why, there is no problem Lingering on this endless process. With lots of doubts, and lots of promises Here we are again
