Power Outage
Omphaloskepsis
for a congruent self,
but finding only lint
from enigmatic sources.

'Lint', 'omphalos' . . . heh, good one.
Omphaloskepsis- enigmatic source? Well, well! :P
I'm nobody, who are you?
Are you nobody too?
There's a pair of us, don't tell!
They'd banish us, you know!
How dreary to be somebody!
Do you know where it comes from? I can only guess.
Thanks everyone.
It comes from the all that dirt and oil that gets stuck in your pores.
Do you read James Joyce (he's notoriously dirty, and he uses the 'omphalos' symbol all throughout Ulysses and Finnegans Wake)?
Seriously, it's quite an "in" thing isn't it? Wonder if it actually works?

I was thinking dead skin cells. That doesn't explain how it is sterile one minute and not the next. Or for that matter, why it only accumulates in that orifice and not others.
I know Joyce is dirty. Bloom expelling his load, great.
As for it working, I suppose it depends on what you are trying to accomplish.
'Stuff' accumulates in the ears, nose, eyes, &c . . . not just in the navel.
Eye boogers, what fun. I'll come up with another 'poem' for the ears.
