Free of The World

Zero sum
None for no one
Steal what you can from yourself
to live
to eat
to sleep
ㅤㅤ
Those who have hoard for fear of loss
They hoard the immaterial in the hopes of living forever
The past echoes
Masters in all but name
They hang themselves on the cables they strung
They crack under the weight of logistics
We all suffer when the engine goes unfed
Like an unstopped butterfly needle in a vein
all life flows from humanity and the earth
We amass blood and poison. bury it, and yearn to forget
We build tools
tools to shift burning desert to lush forest and back again
We burn them on the pyre
The gear turns crushing fingers
A sledgehammer used where a razorblade would do
The past echoes
Let us free the earth of our ignorance
Let us free ourselves of needless burdens
A world where food not of this earth is coasted downhill into our larders
A world where flesh yields as and reshapes like gold to a jeweler
"With our hands on the Devine while waist deep in the muck"
Like a barn rotting in a field people naturally fall inward
Self destructing as if to declare them a child of entropy
As if we are being given fireless light for the second time
Clinging to inaction with undreamt piety
Extend you hands in the hope of sieging the future
Through luck and stubbornness. Hope and foolishness
Eyes drift. Hands and feet push forward. The few become the many.
The past echoes
