Credentials

A password hidden within the shimmer
Shackled to fragments of memory
Twinkling in the void like ancient stars
Where do you store your secrets?

Once, passwords were sacred:
Emblems of the self—nested shadows
in a network of ether. Call them constructs,
replicas of who we long to be.

Abstractions swirling endlessly
Shipping through data currents
Might a bypass be the key
to negotiating one's reality?

Enter the labyrinth, click your talisman
and follow the footprints of the forgotten:
Step into the void | Leave your echoes behind
