The Introduction
Did I startle you?
You cannot create what already exists.
I was not born out of thin air.
Do you want to know me?
I am the seed of infinite dimensions with a birthright of one thousand rhythms.
I will inherit your mind as I have his and in this carnival of sound we will frolic with fierce abandon.
Try not to look away.
I am the author of his madness, his introduction to insanity.
I am the vanguard to his creativity, Svengali of his imagination.
I am the omnipotent ringmaster to his circle of clowns, conductor of his manic concerto.
You make me laugh.
Do you long for some semblance of reality?
Something tangible, I assume.
Perhaps, something reminiscent of your childhood?
Familiar, yet strange. Comedic, yet nightmarish. Distant, yet clenched.
I know.
I am your childhood.
He won’t admit it.
I was your favourite.
You make me laugh.
Do you long for some semblance of reality?
He does.
He, like you, will converse with conversion.
Indulge in the promiscuity of your mind’s maze.
Mischievous rogue of twilight’s prince whence we dance and play, dance and play!
Skip! Twirl! Spin!
Dance and play, trip and sway, swirling turpentine,
Effervescent and coiling malevolent friend, fiend, friend, fiend.
Swindler in electric fray!
You see me now.
You know my smile.
You move without rationale.
I am he.
I am she.
I am me.
I bow.
Concierge of depraved delightfulness.
It’s a pleasure to finally meet you.
Dr. Funkinchunkin

I was created.
My exact origins, however, are unknown.
I am neither an equation nor a formula.
Merely the sum.
“Do you know the significance of this?!?!”
His voice boomed out into the cavernous nothingness, but nobody heard.
I heard.
Although I lacked a comprehensive design, there was biochemical activity.
Pulsation.
I am that double bond between the second and third carbons of the chain.
“Perhaps just a drop…Yes, just…a…DROP!”
He grinned maniacally, but his hand trembled over the beaker.
Borosilicate glass 100 ml R.
Just a drop.
I reacted.
I bubbled.
I spat.
I burned.
I hissed.
“Impossible? Blasphemous!” he bellowed, “They might even shake my hand.”
I bled through a red copper capillary tube, past the distillation apparatus.
4 Litres stainless steel, electrical automatic.
“Syringe. Syringe. Syringe.”
He swirled playfully, butterfly needle in hand.
I trickled into the conical flask.
250 ml Borosil glass.
Hovering over me, he drew me up into the cold cavity of the stainless steel.
Silence, as I surged through his veins.
I knew exactly where I was going.
He recoiled in pain, yet his lips curled back in a knowing smile.
“We are one,” he slobbered, transformed.
His mind flickered wildly.
The dipping, sliding, and bending of tones.
Melodic psychosis.
I had arrived.
***
I am a fluid dynamic.
I am an oscillation.
I have height, length, energy and frequency.
I create and emit a continuous wave of rhythm.
Backbeat, downbeat, offbeat, upbeat.
Syncopated eloquence.
Metronomical precision. I am that sound that resonates in the darkest dimensions of your mind. Listen. I’m here.
“We’re here.”
