Ouroboran Anthropocene

Entropy unmoored

Grin & b{e}ar{e}

Teeth glisten as your heft I shoulder

Atlantean, world hoist upon our back

Bowed & yoked asunder

This surfeit load sounds whistles to the emptiness

All assumed all withheld all intended ignorance

Hunger pangs ring sharp

Your voice a pavlovian bell

Reveries of consumption summoned at the trill

Within this baptismal fire

Blazing mouth agape

We swallow the world

&

you whole along with it

Round belly now pregnant with tragedy and with farce

as

I roil & belch & cradle this wellspring clutch

The alchemical womb curing what it may, labours

What it must

Birthed of the crucible formed of the void

God willing dust to dust

***

Lulled under

The cunning sophist, washes my hair,

Offering ablution spiced with

half-truths, verisimilar,

melodic & sweet.

wound about a darkened path

&

soothsaid into tombs.

the gold gild promise&

lead laden lore, is but

corpse fodder.

Through casks and crowns

And brick by brick

A tomb is masoned in chimerical honor

***

We subsist off of

Ill-gotten gains and earth blood

in

Aggrandized inner seas.

Withheld adulterated & destroyed

these ships

Culled, strained &

fined to insipidity

 ***

Spells woven by black magic solipsists,

synthesize realities in occultation.

the daily apocalypse, sun up sun down is

abandoned , a forgotten dream.

 the plasticine, apostates of flesh

shiver in the metaverse,

as looms of allegiance to sterility preservations

 offer densely woven blankets that suffocate us

 in their warmth.

*the life we lost in living t.s.e.*
