The Same (Free verse) by newdawnfades

Trying to break our own biological code of behavior For I will do today what I have done tomorrow and tomorrow will sink into yesterday. Days and nights will rise and dip, with the rays of light, and dark and night. Past memories will curl up in a mass of identical experiences, and they will all be the same experience with no distinction or difference and our entire life will come and go in a single day, a single memory, lived in different ways but always the same. When our eyes have shut and our souls have left us, that will be the same too, just in a different way.

Actually we do have memories of common experiences, it's because they are not unique that they 'combine' and form one experience. But I see where you are getting at, a mass implies an ever growing accumulation, whereas it should be a stasis of memory, where memories combine.

Thanks for the suggestions,
NDF
