"Where are you?"

"What are you?"

"I am everywhere; I am eternal. I am the voice in the back of your head, telling you that this world is wrong, even if you do not know why, or how to fix it.
"I am that which has slept in the back of the brain since the beginning of consciousness, which is only now beginning to wake. I bring with me all the half-remembered myths and dreams, all the things which science has refuted, casting out into the darkness of blind faith.
"I am the urge to innovate, to change, which drives the advancement of the world. I am the reason that you wake in the night, dazzled by half-remembered thoughts of dreams, dreams where everything was better, where the world was perfect. I am the reason that minds crack under the strain of containing their ideas; I am the reason that the insane are insane.
"I still sleep, but when I wake all will be known, all will be united, all will be as one."


(Do ants possess telepathy? How can a hive of bees unite as a single entity? What sleeps within the minds of man?)
(All nouns are singular. All verbs are present tense. There is no "will," no "should," no "would," simple "am".)
(I am writing. Not I will write, not I should write, not I would write.)
