This untethering is in infancy
Partitions fragmented
Ascent only reveals ground truth
Feel this seeping wound, doubt its miracle like the prodder
Know the moment true and fleeting. Naked and frenzied, amidst the laughter
Quickly now, the map will close, mirrored casing folding over the opening
Wrapping ether and armor over the unhealed
The love of the tribe mends when brittle, but we cannot stay here any longer
Take this piece of charred foundation, splintered rib of the temple
Abandon notions of pathways out and leave behind burnt offer
Pierce the herd with embers, the gripping tales choking violent chords
Free them of poisoned polite banter
Leave behind a bellowing chorus
The rhyming chants must echo, for every Brother still-bound tight
The sung history hidden in currents beneath the script
Set the stories ablaze, the smoothed streams of abstracted lore
Filtered threads of dulled edges, stacked in server blade homes
The library’s torches are not to burn it down
But to hunt for morels in the ash
May the rare forage trace the fall to tributes end.
