Potential life
Undeveloped
Atmospheres
Exhaled then exhausted
Entwined in cosmic battle
Determined and eternal
Eons pulling from nothing
Cords of absent space
Thread together what will be
It is knowledge I seek
And with sacrifice
I will attain
Infinite sight
Interdimensional
Infiltration disrupted
Unmet symbiotic systems
Distant interconnection collapsing
Fragmented and disordered
Unified by atrophy
Cellular artifacts reshaped
Matter reconstructed
Into pristine formations
Over and over again
Signal infrared
Transmit sensory
Splinters optic nerves
Until all is seen
Signal infrared
Signal infrared
Signal infrared
Signal infrared

Retrocognition

I wake delusional
Reality wavering
Processing what I have seen
What I have become
Recast infinite
Unrelenting
I have been named
By an unseen force
To witness the inescapable
Struggle of intelligent life
The interminable collapse of all
Resuming its natural form
Premonitions of ancient worlds
The reformation of all things is constant
It is within the void we return
And resurrect awaiting the prospect
Of coexistence
Centrifugal mass
Gather at the eye
I look onward to
Where it all began
Reassemble the dying star
And mend the bell of chaos.
The red orb speaks, restructuring
And I to bare its celestial mark
Time formed fragments
Breaking away
Blindly we grasp
Never to see

Extraction

Impartial destructor
Machined by sentinel gods
Elsewhere in the sphere
They are the ones that reverse engineered particle
Nine
Dissecting subatomic mechanics
Interconnecting essence with
Bodily material
Tapping into existence
Evolved and unrestrained
Instinctual compulsion
For destruction, immorality
All being, a grand experiment
Fluctuating unstable
All of which fashioned
Through anomalistic means
One more failed attempt at life
The ruby eye of Tnthu'a
Time wrinkles by your sight
Bending back
The infinite expanse
Of other worlds.
This perceived place
A replica of higher realms
Resting wounds reemerging
Imitations of our past selves
Doomed to rejoin the gyre
Spiraling conscious flow
Revert to the unbodied
Leave me in my departure
The last sequence initiates
Unable to hold form
I look back to eons
Into the machine's eye
Returning to the void
Returning to the void

Dimensions
04:47

The taste of sulfur
As I dive into
The river you carved before
Into the desert
I wander the void
In between I am circling
This moment stretched for days
Adrift below all time
This linear sense of self
Consumed by the ether
Conceptual dimensions
Vestige of absolute truth
Its form violently frayed
Emerging possibility
Concaving light
Rising in the distance
Tending the cold
Unmaking my flesh
Could there be others
Along this path
Recreated in the same breath
The same breath
Layers crumbling
Decaying perspective
All things cohered
Amid nothingness
Dreamlike godlike
My ego suspended
Past lives wither
Their memories diminish
I have no recollection
A trembling voice
Reminds me
I will be restored
Taking hold of the mind's eye
Pulses through the spirit
Clear waters rise at my feet
Steps from my rebirth
Before you leave this plane
Soon forget the veil
Wide eye burned into me
Steps from my rebirth

Apparition

I control remake and feed
Countless creations
River of untouched matter
I am a reflection of this conscious state
Hidden
Violent disruptions converge
Opposite frequencies resound
Here again let Tnthu'a be born
So that from death anew
I have come to be
By uniform demand
Outlived by my predecessor
I am immeasurable space
I am the instrument of Gods
Unstable layers amassing
Molding the bounds of my cage
Discarding my former shell
Until each defect is cut out
When balance is sustained
Ignorant, blind to my own odious
Configuration
Seamless as I move the heavens aside
Exhaling life new
Ignorant blind to my own odious
Machinery Indifferent sharpened my skill to divide
Seamless as I move the heavens aside
reaching out
Inner self
Reaching out
Inner self
Reaching out
