Somnus

by Kardashev

on Peripety (2015)

This is where all things are forgotten
Craft of our hands feels nothing as
We fade away
Meaninglessness
The first creation
In every action, in every breath
Strength of illusion

Torn in two
The sky breaks like a seed
Spreading its blueprint on the Earth
All things beyond the man-made
Culminate and fall...
Passionate. Intentional
Assault your lungs with the greatest of all war cries
We are! We exist!

I, the offset
The only word we know
Light, alignment
A truth that can be known

Veil held across the sun
Only we can burn you!

This is when all things can be sacred
Held to fire
Removal of all that we know

Torn in two
The sky breaks like a seed
Spreading its blueprint on the Earth
All things beyond the man-made
Culminate and fall...
Passionate. Intentional
Assault your lungs with the greatest of all war cries
We are! We exist!
