Hashing the Input not one that has died but one which was born, a ghost word becomes fact by repetition and use; the phantom finds body in being seen; only after an event does history offer receipts a plastic voice box sounds like the real thing; a severed limb still sends messages from beyond the grave no race, no win, no turning back— knotted words clutter hollow lands with bytes, hacks & clues more ash, more klinker, more smog, more slime— emit damage and what decays to defeat real truth wherever there are ruins, lies like flames dance across time; empty towers, a broken fortress, stone dead markers on an open plain: night can’t fall on an empire already drowned under an inky sea— its books all gone to the secret dark of a lexicon salted down with nonce and hash
