Colony Collapse |
As we drift from dust to the stars |
Celestial castaways |
The ashes of a world behind |
In frozen form displayed |
What thrived, so full of life |
In flames, soon did end |
So goes the lot of man |
Spiraling away into the black |
Event horizon past |
What began as tragedy |
So quickly turned to farce |
As tentacles entropy |
Left no living thing untouched |
(nothing left alive) |
Backwards one billion years |
Arc of light, solar wind |
Rust and decay |
From primal fist, to obelisk |
Drifting, collapsing into time |
Code-infused sophistry |
And algorithmic certainty |
A cut from the finest cloth |
Through sentient circuitry |
So cold to the touch |
Pride in the face of madness |
Carved in the image of man |
What post-human prophecies upend |
Not one could defend |
Fed through the vector of time |
Breed singularity |
HAL never gave an answer |
For what? |
Utopia? |
Delete! |
Burning matter, Bleak horizons |
Drifting onwards, into our waiting deaths |
Colony collapse |
Necroexodus |
Colony collapse |
Exit stage left |
