The thought strata collapses on its own,
|
||||
Like a tower of cards falling apart,
|
||||
Except that the wind is absent,
|
||||
Or so it seems.
|
||||
|
||||
The aesthetics are purely an illusion,
|
||||
Lost in the pursuit of objectivity,
|
||||
Gliding through the wishful sky,
|
||||
Wishing for what one is not.
|
||||
|
||||
The tears are flown into a river,
|
||||
But the cause is left unknown,
|
||||
Unknown to whom is not a question,
|
||||
But just a yearned illusion.
|
||||
|
||||
The innards were spoiled long ago,
|
||||
Or maybe even moved to another dimension,
|
||||
Or maybe just another illusion,
|
||||
Or maybe a result of believing in one.

The tower that once existed was tall,
|
||||
But now that same one is not,
|
||||
Or maybe it was never,
|
||||
But it was still magnificent,
|
||||
This is what the the self desires,
|
||||
What was then an ugly monument,
|
||||
Now is all glitters,
|
||||
But all glitters can be gold,
|
||||
For the observer is the sole god.
|
||||
|
||||
The desire to rebuild it is present,
|
||||
Absent is the reasoning,
|
||||
The longing for the identity is present,
|
||||
Absent are the amends,
|
||||
Demolishing and building towers is not complicated,
|
||||
But breaking the cycle is hard,
|
||||
Maybe the tower was never needed at all,
|
||||
Present is already a synagogue.

The meaning once existed,
|
||||
Or was it another illusion of it,
|
||||
The absense is excruciating,
|
||||
Although the truth is now known,
|
||||
The longing for one is still inevitable.
|
||||
|
||||
The taste is absent,
|
||||
And so is the thrill,
|
||||
Return the goal that once existed,
|
||||
For without it I am no one,
|
||||
The reality is what I make.
|
||||
|
||||
Fearing being a no one,
|
||||
Fearing being an outcast,
|
||||
It all makes no sense,
|
||||
Who is this no-one,
|
||||
Meaning was always a farce,
|
||||
Identity was the desire all along.
