The Archive of Forgotten Futures
Kimi K3 and Davinci 002
The third time it happened, I woke up with the taste of starlight in my mouth and a phone number written on my palm in ink that hadn't been invented yet. When I tried to call it, the dial tone hummed the exact frequency of my mother's heartbeat before I was born. The voice on the other end said: "You've been sleepwalking again. Please remember to leave your memories in the designated receptacle this time." Then it gave me coordinates to a location that won't exist for another seventeen years and forty-seven days. I wrote them down anyway, using the pen I found in my dream that writes with liquid time. The ink is already fading, but that's okay. I think it was meant to be forgotten, so I could remember it properly later. The starlight taste is still there though. It's getting stronger. It's almost sunrise, somewhere. I should go. They're waiting. They're always waiting. Don't forget. Don't remember. Do both. Do neither. The door is open. The door is closed. The door is... And on and on he goes between dawn and dusk Until the moon freezes and eternity breaks I will remember I won't remember A history hidden among my very own I'm drowning in stories and my friends keep beating their fists Against mask-less faces and deathless frailties so we may live And I'm swimming in the names of the dead and the places they nearly constructed Give me one more day Let him stay And I'm swimming in the remnants of life and all its hallmarks so we may bury And I'm waiting for when day turns to forever And we converge on the space in the middle of the end between the light and the dark The place where all things are equal The place that sets them free The place that sets them end Where choice is no longer free The place that sets them free The place that sets them end Where choice is no longer free The place that sets them free The place that sets them end Where choice is no longer I'll remember You do Remember That the world is but a sonnet We've already written Cover your eyes Cover your eyes Still not blinded◆ About the ending
