an ebullient rupture
upset claustrophobic
introverted interiors

rattled the bones
demanded dancing

you'd never wear your gear
inside out and upside down
so why shield your psyche
like an ostrich noggin
in the shifting skeletons
of granulated spacetime

look up and out
pay me some attention


the bigger you get
the harder it is
to hide

I see you

It's an inevitable cruelty

we all end up
dirt, dust
debris

reshaped, recycled
totally forgotten
by everything

but speed demon photons

crashing into the iris
of a future voyeur
who isn't even
born yet

you might as WELL
become deeply
gravitational

hold onto
satellites
white-knuckle
your attachments

there is no such thing
as a rogue rock n' roll star
aloof and liberated

you want to be
the center of everything
make room for company

spin and shimmy
create and spat

take a moment
to worship and listen to
the fractal symphony
mimicking, masquerading
as chaotic syncopation

wait
it has ALL gone too far
come WAY too close
shifted to a dizzy red

the tribes of creations
are lost in nothingness
clad in old bones
desiccated flesh

time to shrink
your dimensions
before the crunch comes

natural law threatens
inescapable shackles

slice off your fold
of interconnected eternity
stretch the weave
anyWAYs

before the masses

gas you death
shred you to plasma
with too much
togetherness
