Response to Phillip Glass’ “Metamorphosis One”
Logic or common sense? Pragmatism or precedent non respectfully.
In sated comfort I recline as a being of fashion.
In hallowed halls I wallow in the agonizing indifference of youth
a paradigm by which only I can change, non respectfully.
Naming the ages of this and that, states of the past
evolving ever after. Our perspective; catalyst to the evolving past.
Our perspective , holy and hallowed hall, the cathedral which houses
our gods non respectfully.
Self absorbs earth. God is an emotional response.
Infinite hallelujahs in the infinite microscopic.
Self is a defense. Mechanism. Mechanical.
Machines are artifacts of causality, as we all,
non-respectfully.
