Innumerable force of Spirits armed,
That durst dislike his reign, and me preferring,
His utmost power with adverse power opposed
In dubious battle on the plains of Heaven
And shook his throne. What though the field be lost?
All is not lost—the unconquerable will,
And study of revenge, immortal hate,
And courage never to submit or yield;
And what is else not to be overcome?

John Milton, Paradise Lost (I.101-109)

the matrix of time; Before we make
music, music makes us.

On the edge of boredom
We're reaching for death
On the end of a candle
We're trying for something
That's already found us.
