Spiritus Mundi

Let us look to see
Nothing we knew before time
Disfigured us all

What I use to mean
I cannot give account for
Nor you explain still

A function machine
Has swallowed us, we go in
Awake, out asleep

Becoming something
We were not meant to pursue
It pursues us here

No beauty born now
Nor beast close to Jerusalem
The lamb's long now dead.

Frogs despising hawks
Out of Egypt sucks the moon
Bloodless white. I smiled

When the door opened
The sun is rising too late
To close doors again.
