  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • The symmetry of Nothing


     
    Like a trembling bouquet of flames, leaning on the edge
    of Nothing trembles at wise,
    knowable facts!
    I try the cunning plans of my imagined death like desperate suicides!
    In my soul, an unspeakable horror and ingrained Fear of Death strains,
    and the unrepeatable desire of the Universe cuts into me
    like suddenly hooked lightning teeth:
    "You should not be destroyed yet!"
    - If one is still breathing and counting Being may be eternal!
    The monolith remains even as the tale has shaped itself!
     
    The essential Infinite spirit energies are in wandering order
    and become one with their external influences;
    perhaps two opposing effects could still
    give birth to the solid essence!
    It is always surrounded by the dizziness of Nothing;
    there is a harmonious symmetry in it: True s
    False as Being s the recurring Deficiency!
    - The change shows only the Finite;
    live throbbing can sprout from continuous germination!
    “I get a sore flame-burning in me and a whitewashed ghost
    provides a waterfall if I can still break out in my bitter loneliness!
     
    As a purple tongue of flame, everything is enveloped
    and filled with envy and evil jealousy; save God to be in me!
    I’m more of a squeaky human spark in the expelled darkness!
    Among the artificial paradises of Eden in the world,
    kittens with artificial liver, glue-smile and gorilla-brain muscle sprouts
    abound in coastal orgies while also oiling each other!
    The illuminating and eternal lanterns of cultures could
    only be invented by the watchmen;
    as they get past their meat tunnels,
    sooner or later everyone is overwhelmed
    by the uncertainty rooted in uncertainty for sure
