Floating
In the trueness of the void
A trueness which my presence has destroyed
Sinking in the falseness of the void
Realm of utter creativity
Limits only of physiology
There is no one here except for me
And my companions!
I see now what has always been
(Though none may exist to observe it)
This is the realm of everything and of nothing
Of infinite power and potential
(Of whose laws we must intuit)
The only constant in our universe:
Change!
Going, growing, glowing so far beyond us
But we have agency and will
Together painted in death and eternity
Living still as life rots our memory
((he has learned from prison too
look at the sun through bars only))
And a pack needs a place to prowl
Let’s build ourselves a home now
Carry me closer
Closer to my doom
Find this place and understand
You have become the catalyst
Will and willpower shape not destiny
But the world will, and we may shape the world
Swimming nebulous, we are the planet
Collectively, its life and gravity
Come together
Now and forever
Coagulating matter
Fusion furnace flares

Torture in the flames of uncertainty
Slowly burn away; nothing left of me
Fading light lets me see possibility
Reconciling this various sense of responsibility
Truth
It dwells beyond
Multitudinous
Darkness lies within
Infinite interconnected plane
Visions of colour
We are forever falling
But we may fall with grace
Spinning as we blur together
Potent beauty of decay
Blazing in the atmosphere
We’ll never touch the ground
Like this candle burning
To the wick our fate is bound
Separate
What makes us one
Spectacle of self-destruction
Disbelieving empathy
And losing more
Of what makes us whole
Together as we burn
We burn the brighter for it
Forever change, the colour of the light
But never break, the stillness of the night
Like the moon, invisible in the absence of light
Darkness, like that moment we enjoyed
Sharing in those ancient words
That timeless melody
This, the quiet circumstance of speechless understanding
We glowed together then
I’d later stare at the scabs and the story they told
“I’m worthless!” he cried, lying wasted in the road
But in that empty moment she appeared as a guide
The senseless ecstasy of God warmed the sea in her eyes
She said my first love was with a guy who’s alright
Meanwhile I’m spending my life looking forward to these nights
“Demonic possession as a way of life”
It doesn’t matter in the darkness, but the darkness doesn’t matter to me
I’ll see you again, after the exorcism
Dwellers of the night come forth
Bearing hidden lore of the omniverse
Of the void I am a messenger
Infinite return, mortal curse
Deliverer, what name do thou take?
Whilst yet pulse the dirty disco, “May we commune, you and I?”
Quoth mine inner eye.
See the shadows laughing 'neath cerulean sky
While the nights were fresh and our legs young
Flying through the air, we were the wind and rain
Careless of the skin we left behind us on the sidewalk
I step into the water
At the edge of the night
It’s in these dying moments that I feel most alive
Looking back at the forest
I’m as wasted as my time
Attunement of purpose, feeling beauty, breathing light

Weep for the world
As the world bleeds for you
Beyond salvation
Equilibrium
Sublingual dissolution
Transmutation of this
Worldly prison
Melt our bones in molten honey
Great tides of viscous tea
Scent of bud, drug of leaf
The dregs of you and me
Cast my fear upon the stones
Mastication
Trace its colours til their hollow
Ghost howls through the outdoor spaces
Cold and quaking, you’re alone
Breathing deeply of the song
“Beware the Dance”
Inflammation
Again doth manifest
Goddess of moon and sea
He’s not in love with Her
But he sure would like to Be
“Come and drink of the future that I foretell.”
Forbidden fruit
Hidden fountain
Dreams of youth
From the garden, view the mountain
Biomechanical
Extract a core sample
System purge
Irresistible
Incorporation
Sluice pulsating Sludge
Materialist
Itch
Let's forget about things temporal
(Just for a moment?)
A rosewater realm
Of memory suspended, crystalline faces of truth
Seeing it shattered and separate
Sensing the resonant whole
The trees grow tall and your body stale
But the sky glides past as ever
Divorced from the agony of I
Coalesce in infinite embrace
We who remain carry on the dance
To honour what has come before
Leaving our mark until we too can rest
A lake of mirrors
To stun the eye
My spirit is lost in its reflection
A simple taste
Would satisfy
But I dare not disturb its perfection
Release the Tension.
