Addicted to demise Endless grey murk Sat heavy upon undulation The hominid weaklings Fail to perceive, fail to act A simulacrum of virtuousness The stone is cast Vapour writhes in its wake A surface seething gently Dark emerald and sickly pale Far below that, anguish Crisis surges from the depths Seasons whirl Gradually blackening The process accelerates Action and reaction Inviting to despoiling You claim 'eerie prescience': I laugh at your aggrandisement Things have always been thus You just failed to notice until now
If I said that existence is Cartesian You would say: no, my experience is not If I am bereft, a new lover does Not make me who I was before Bone dice have been rolled Reversal is impossible Forfeited mechanism The arrow's oncoming Or poisoned boulder Picking up speed Your self-deceit punished By inexorable energy Your preference is of no consequence The skeins have been plotted When this has been expropriated And all has been expropriated And your endowment has been abolished Then you will know the wealth of my cruelty
