Monolith

Contributed by woodymiles on Saturday, 12th September 2009 @ 07:06:02 AM in AEST
Topic: abstract

The truth bends around large objects
And curves in on itself
Inversely proportionate to deceit
Parallel to innocence
Oblivious to understanding
It displays diverse qualities
At different points in
Spatio temporal reality

Perception + time =personal deception

There is no universal (truth)
Just the particular and the jaundiced
Only the internal
Infernal fallacy.

All is fabric
Madness in the moment
What bizarre choice is this?
Yet sanity is the domain of the power
We give to the maniacs of certainty.
Mania from heaven
Worshipping the idle.

The high priest puppet master
Drinks our blood while we sleep
And fornicates in our dreams
And we awake in innocence
Our virtue buggered
And our despair satiated.

Hi there

I like this - not exactly sure why. Some of the
lines used are unique in their descriptions........

''There is no universal (truth)
just the particular and the jaundiced.''

and ....

''All is fabric.''

So ... what we get is not always what
we think it is.

Good write.
