Transcendental Time

Incandescent illusions of massive transfusions For we are all trapped in tautological time There is no escape for when you awake A punitive prisoner that has committed no crime Silent components dictate progressive opponents Any resistance is pointless regardless of pace Metaphysical complication an intellect's dilation Enthusiastic ecclesiastics question the race For if time is an arrow through the nefarious narrow A paradoxical passenger in the line of thought We travel through seasons without any reasons Our vanquishable views left to rapaciously rot Time is no adversary, each breath is temporary It has no value for destiny, no respect for fate What use are monetary needs in a mortuary All is lost when the heart is in a motionless state Then time swallows whole our collective soul Radiolucent ruins amidst residual ravenous rust Tumultuous time carries on to a new distant dawn For we return to the earth as decompositional dust. July/26/2017 Collaboration...Silent One/Winged Warrior Not for any contest... ...welcoming back an old friend from the Soup...
