Rendered in Onyx |
A choir of unreality chimes |
A host of obsidian seraphim swarms |
Etched upon the tapestry of reason |
A litany of falsehoods awash with fear |
Fear of all-encompassing emptiness |
Fear of an infinity of the unknown |
Fear of the purity of meaninglessness |
Fear of a darkness that acts as a mirror to ignorance |
Carved in the very coldest regions of an uncaring bleak multiverse |
Hewn from strident monoliths of absence and vacuum |
And so |
I condemn a species that thrives on its own terror |
That derives essence from the spire of pity |
And I seek my place amongst the temples |
There are many places in which true wisdom hides |
Where the unbroken fabric of reality lies in wait |
Shrouded |
Cloaked in aether’s dark blessing |
Beyond the sight by those tethered |
To the dead weight of matter, to the prison of the flesh |
Penance is sought in that which is perceptible |
But no solace dwells within the rotten fabric of a half-truth |
Their systems crumble beneath a hailstorm |
Of unpicked knots of knowledge |
Palpitating sentience trembles |
Against the rearing menhirs of absolution |
Secrets buried in darkness |
Truth rendered in onyx |
