The Pendulum - Echidna

What a marvelous beauty that is

That of an incomprehensible abyss

As astonishing as the sun, yet so hideous in its vagueness

What an agony to exist

Balancing between matter and nihil

As simple as the feel of the wind

Yet vast like a cosmic ocean

How the subconscious is able to provide

A layer that severs perception from nothing

An amalgam of incoherent entities that form the essence of life

Dwelling on the brink of void

In the shade of the eyelid

A scarlet shape crawls

Inside the eyes a projection

An organic machine slowly molding reality

The pendulum demands

To cherish the relentless pace of time

Amidst eleven dimensions

Matter collapses to the glint of a moment

The failure of the abyss

It’s inability to judge beyond the terms of its likeness

Bound to its very being

An eagle untethered in its cage

Pondering upon the human potential

The social reflection of the abyss

Condemned to be biased against its own existence

Still meant to transcend its natural limits

In the shade of the eyelid

A scarlet shape crawls

Inside the eyes a projection

An organic machine slowly molding reality
