It swirls. I see it. But my mind won't comprehend what I see. Because, it can't. Because, it was never meant to.
When I breathe it, it flows into me. The more I breathe, the more I want to breathe it again. Even if I were to stretch till the universe should not contain me, it won't stop. I won't stop. We won't stop.
For life is cruel. For life is ambiguous. For life is unfair.
Life is, an anomaly.
But, of what kind?
What's it meant to be? The greater light that dawns on this cosmos, what is it in it's eye? Is it justice? Is life, a weapon?
Maybe life, is discovery itself.
Thoughts, like pins, dig into my skull, seep through my body, till every cell in me is aware of them. Till every breath I take, I renounce them. They are my prayers. They are my offering.
The spiral it spins down. With no beginning, no end. I am outside it, while inside. It lights, it darkens.
It's ever-changing, as it ought to be.
It's black. It's white. It's golden.
Beautiful. Haunting. Intoxicating.
I reach out with my left hand. I complete the ritual with drops of crimson, mixing with black mist. The hand of God reaches out. I sinfully take it. Consummating this sacred marriage, I become one.
I see Him. I see Her. I see It.
Temples melding, dissipating, taking form, vanishing, becoming something between nothing and everything.
The cacophony enrages my mind to peaceful silence. I drink the elixir, I drink eternity.
I drink poison. I drink Him, Her and It.
Under the watchful eye-
Yttr, I become.
