ruins

ruins
of structures the interior
purpose forgotten of my mind
stones fit together is a ruin
insane precision the exterior
nowhere gods alive or un of my mind
dead does not exist
nothing sun
Temples?
Fortresses? (to create thinking machines out of stone, no
mortar, surreal joining angles, intelligence
provided through solar interference and
pornographic Bose-Einstein effects, lace under
garments, smiles of disaster be longing)
Brothels? Ideas concepts structures
Mausoleums? undefined self-defining purposes
(to build love true and trust
with the assistance of internal
external
divine
mortal
suns)
Why do these twists
Tens of thousands of people lusts blinks longings
did what here ambitions
appear to exist exist at all?
or what?
(climb the peak of this ruin, leap up
fly skyward)
Reptile urges
race memories
(visit every nation of the world, but the undiscovered
country is inside the brain-nipple eggshell, or moving
from me to you as we simultaneously awaken and fall asleep,
touching with fingers of blood, laughing with calloused
toeshapes, understanding each other better with a distance
of a thousand years)
Stupid people
sacrificing llamas
to nonexistent gods Working 12 hours daily
in quest of goals destined to
(to recapture unsatisfy
the idiot wisdom of
a child)
My mind was once
a powerful civilization
incorporating half the atoms
on the Earth
Using secret mathematics
we constructed magic calendars
predicting
the shadow movements of the soul
I can no longer recall the carvings
i made in the walls of my imagination
that golden language is gone,
gone, gone
