antediluvian skies
greetings from the new maladaptive madman.
I am Tamerlane dying to make a battle plan.
here is the deluge, here's the flood.
contagious states of mind can be the worst plague,
if harm is a charm, then your violence is too vague.
I'm an acrobat; I arrived on the Hindenburg.
I emerge from a cave and I find
Jules Verne and Plato picnicking on the Rhine.
here is the deluge, here's the flood.
flourish! here is my garden of Eden.
here is my garden of Hesperides.
here are my gardens of Alcinous.
my Elysian Fields, my Utopia, my Olympus.
here is my mythical Atlantis.
exeunt! my beginning, ending,
brilliant ideal craving.
I'm an acrobat; I arrived on the Hindenburg.
you're a superficial super official--
cause grief with every order you initial.
you bring in the darkness like it was a featured guest.
the unanswered question, the unquestioned answer:
skulls in Table Mountain and pyramids in Ohio.
you bring in the darkness like it was a featured guest.
I'm the condemned man, yet only survivor
of the Martinique 1902 disaster.
here is the deluge, here's the flood.
