It is strange to me that I cannot leave A surface real, but widely unperceived. n-dimensioned space, Vectors won’t escape. I can try to change; Attractors stay the same, So I remain.
Glasses case, knowledge base, Mental states mapped in phase, Where motive gets erased. Get my mind back on straight. Interface, don’t erase The things I can’t replace. Displaced, disgraced Out of place, in your face, But I won’t win this race. Damn your pull is strong, My strange attractor.
If I get away from this mental maze I am afraid that I’ll be back this way. Fixed point, map sink; Makes it hard to think. I can still break free; Attractors wait for me. The release is brief.
Turn the page, step onstage, Fractal rage makes a cage That can’t be disengaged. Don’t reveal your age, You’re in range, that won’t change; Attractors turning strange. Define domain and range. Disengage, rearrange, I won’t escape this race. But you knew that all along (didn’t you?) My strange attractor.
I can’t complete what I can’t conceive; Attempts unique, but failing by degrees. I can make a play, Try to get away. I can throw the dice, Sacrifice my life. Is that enough?
Turn the page, step onstage, Fractal rage makes a cage That can’t be disengaged. Get my mind back on straight. Interface, don’t erase The things I can’t replace. Displaced, disgraced, Out of place, in your face, But I won’t win this race. Damn your pull is strong. You define where I belong. I bet you knew that all along, My strange attractor.
