A lifetime has passed; an ocean of eternity has washed over me.
I am calm.
I am calm.
I am calm.
The nothingness in which I have floated, timeless, has become knowingness. I have found a serenity in oblivion, and I know.
I know. I know. I know. I know that I am not the centre of my universe. I know. I know. I know. I know that I am a part in the sum of something greater. I know. I know. I know.
I know that I am not alone.
I am not alone.
It's not an existential affirmation, but a chilling realisation. Someone—something—is here with me.
I am calm.
I am calm.
I am not calm.
Something is heading toward me. I can't see it, but I feel it, vibrating along the threads of the fabric of reality, twisting and turning and folding its way toward me.
And I am calm.

About the curator - Matt Jenko
Hi my name is Matt, but my friends call me Matt. I’m on the wrong side of 29 (damn I hate it every time I have to update that number), definitely feeling my age, but never felt happier and more content than I do at this point in my life. I’ve been through some rocky patches (who hasn’t) and lived to tell the tale, and boy do I gots some stories.
When I’m not giving opinions absolutely nobody asked for, I’m doing a worldbuilding with my passion project, vivaellipsis. If you like offbeat nonsense delivered through immersive escapism, then go and get involved. Or don’t, I’m not telling you what to do. I’m not yer boss.
I’m a simple man with simple interests. I like Yorkshire tea, the sound of rain on the window, and a bloody good story.
