So It Began By Default

By default it began
By default it commenced
In error, but ignored
Uniformed but never really significant
Watching as it falls
As it fails and resists
Pushing against the static wall
Refusing any obligatory responses
Eyes blackened out
     Sight evolved beyond recognition
Suddenly seeing all
     All knowing and now all apparent
Tried to fool, to disguise, to make what is-
                                                             isn't
Yet conquers the knowing of the mind
     Knowing that none of this really exists
Never been
Never will it be
Rushing against the obvious
Rushing past what one thinks they believe
All a lie made to comfort-
     When in truth only aroused to deceive
No resilliance worth profit
If one sacrifices all that ever meant anything
So it becomes ripened
From bush ample and ready to be plucked
To be devoured in its youth
To never know the complications of growing old and up.
