Third voice

timeless Past
flickering in and out of existence
hazard of shadows I often take back
beyond where I haven’t been yet
in this special edition of life
without any sense of expectation
as this life is just another path I walk naked
between the mass murder of Flood,
plaques, ritual slaughters
all brilliant displays of indifference
and the monument of sky carved around the End to All Questions

touch my hand girl
maybe there is more to come below this broken device of liquid darkness
see
I have no sense of fear
I only know past regrets mouth to ear shared with deafening silence of mortal lambs

what carries me is my alien past
my bleeding heart
and snake hunt for my fragile eternity
absurd pretext to outlast pain
while time is coming down on us
invisible bird of pray no blind soul can escape

too bad I always wanted more than I needed
wished for more than enough
just to see the impossible acquire living form
among the still walking
ancient
the Ones and the Only
surviving
resurrected corpses of the dead
