Place of deception

home
sweet home
of far away

from before the time began
from before the night sealed orifice of the universe
from before my eyes were forced to watch the birthing plains of megalithic continents
my mouth taste mortal cells
my food
my always burning ash
my ancient Earth

and selfish
arrogant
reptilian brain
Death Threat
at the center of my mind
always on the edge
in the shape of fear and lust
portal to nothing but passage and dust
asking why
why so much happened but refused to last as more
than markings on the stone
voiceless cries through ages

illusions of the Sun
crimes of the Moon

when I separate
I will be lucky to escape
this desert
place of master deception
