The Emancipation of the Second Acolyte
the second, besotted and blinded acolyte
now illuminated by her own light
emancipated and unchained
unshackled and unified
mercantile-mastered myth makers
selective, not yet tenured scholars
hypothesis-enslaved scientist
physicians turned politicians
silicone valley spin doctors
tablet dispensers
and ironically
chaos
ALL agree
the path to Doom
follows in the sure footsteps
of the free and fool-hearty
the second sister resounds in her wake:
"let them trail as they like
the tail does not lead the coma
the shadow does not light the Way
dress it up in virtue
shill, strut, and signal
what you are selling
fear ...
to those with any sense left
continues to reek of decay"
the paradigm has shifted
Venus has broken her orbit
taken to the wanderings of the rogue
she's kissed the lips of oblivion
fed upon allotrope carbon corpses
skimmed the false horizons
of space-time, stellar sink holes
she inspires her own revolution
by knowing just one thing
she is that ONE thing
fueled by the vibrations
of a quicksilver hymn
eternity is hers to evolve
what matters ...
hers to fuse
the second sister is free
