Spoils

Endowed with the art of casting

Names upon its beings

The humans claimed dominion

Over every living fucking thing

Proud as purpose

As they became to walk the earth

As they arraigned the common creatures

Caught within the corpus

Cursed, conscious human brain

Caught within the corpus

Cursed, conscious human brain

Every word ever written

Will fall short of its intent

Even sung or spoke or screamed

They will betray what they have meant

They will betray what they have meant

They will betray what they have meant

Language is the heart's lament

A weak attempt to circumvent

The loneliness

Inherent in the search for permanence

All the future ghosts

Who scratch their names in wet cement

Demeaning meaning as they shout out at the emptiness

Demeaning meaning as they shout out at the emptiness

Abstraction's the stake between the anima and animus

De-flesh the word scourge of human destiny

Behold the world in other people, life is clarity
