DESTROYING THE TEMPLE
Sweetest sin
is the only thing
that binds us
to that Promethean rock
the passive
destruction
of our human nature's
appetite
by the deus ex machina of Fate's
cold hand
the need to grasp all
before the End
the symphony of destruction
at the wake of Humanity's
last stand
The fire bearer
long extinct,
the destroyer of worlds
grown complacent
to turn inward
and
to within explore
with theorems,
postulates,
and
empirical satirical case files
only to find a tabula rasa
man's long lost
empty shell
Destroying the temple
is the last rebellion of man
so keen so willing so apt
to be free
from self and will
from conscience and consequence
to absolve
our petty and mortal
pecados
we erase the illusion of morality
with a defiant and bold
imagining
a life free from the chains
we did not bind
for a noose
we fasten ourselves
only to hang
rhythmically and endlessly
in the silence
of the void
the sound of music
and the world's ending
save yourself
if you can.
