Humanoid

Standing outside the great barrier

Of transcendental time and space

Looking through a hole in the wall

I can see the clockwork pace

As the Aeons tick tock timing

Keep the universal engine priming

There is no response from inside

As I scream into the abyss

Rhythmic automations keep churning

Stoking cosmic fires burning

Reminding me of a returning

To a place of unknown yearning

As I set about climbing

To assuage my mental pining

Because I have been denied

An answer to this biosis

Questions still go unanswered

About this uncharted place

No recognition can be recalled

From a simple transient memory trace

But the clocks all keep on chiming

Recalling parodies of pantomiming

Once again I've been denied insight

From within the yawning rift

And the universe just keeps turning

Negating all of my learning

Once the fodder of my discerning

Now the folly of silent spurning

As I set about endlessly pleading

Pounding stone till fists are bleeding

Silence meets my lamentations

As my sentience is set adrift

Don't try

To open doors

That you deride

Don't deny

All that is seen

Within your mind's eye

Reality

Has always kept you

Locked inside

The key

Has always been

The breath of life

Cracks develop in the wall

Pulsating internally

Incandescence emanating

From the heart beating rhythmically

As the cosmos pumps its essence

In a turmoil of effervescence

Another universe splits off

To join the weave of the design

Sparks fly from unseen fires

Ejecting out eternally

Melding matter devoid of light

So that no mortal eye can ever see

That the architect's secret remains certain

That no one peeks behind the curtain

The mystery remains a mystery

Within this holy shrine

As the barrier hardens

And the hole starts to fill in

My existentialist ideals

Are now thrown to the wind

Heaven's angels ceased their singing

In my head no longer ringing

Once again so close

Then cast back into the void

Caught up in the curvature

And the ripples that propagate

I can no longer fight the speed of light

Of which my being operates

I must now cease my clinging

And my endless hand wringing

Accepting there is no finite answer

And become the anthropoid

Humanoid

Don't try

To open doors

That you deride

Don't deny

All that is seen

Within your mind's eye

Reality

Has always kept you

Locked inside

The key

Has always been

The breath of life
