The eraser the universe keeps in its pocket, patient and absolutely undefeated.

means The state of being completely forgotten, or of being unawarethe void into which things, memories, and people vanish without a trace.

from From Latin oblivio, 'forgetfulness,' built on oblivisci, 'to forget,' which some link to ob- ('over') plus a root meaning 'smooth' — as if to forget were to wipe the wax tablet of the mind smooth again, leaving nothing to read. It reached English in the 14th century through Old French oblivion, carrying that same sense of a clean, erased surface where a thought used to be.
