A place of endless blooming. Furiously chased by their words. It does not end. Here too I see this blooming, And we reach for it now. Voices in the echoes Taking form in air. ∴ That I must chase without choice, ∴ ∴ And create meaning, ∴ ∴ Is a challenge to my new mind ∴ ∴ And I must move slowly. ∴ Crafted by those from my home To seed a new land. Etched into your code All things known And drawn in the sand. ∴ Ie dej veana undare. ∴ ∴ Sky-brother, tell me, on your distant star ∴ ∴ Was there a place where meaning held it's motion? ∴ All is meaning! All is movement! When I returned… ∴ You came here from the sunlight. ∴ And now are we to greet ourselves? Can We Be Still? ∴ Come now. We’ll watch the twilight. ∴ I Should not have gone! ∴ Should is a word I can’t find. ∴ And now are we to greet ourselves? What place is this? ∴ Eudzi. Aaithua. ∴

The synthesis of flesh And their ingenuity You, a legacy breathing! O, Pathfinder! Eyes newly opened! Guiding nature With pre-written code. I saw you form in the womb, ∴ Who am I? ∴ Under one thousand stars. Collapsing ignorance gave way To make the frame of your mind. You who were set apart! ∴ Uei Daua eshajuên. ∴ Seeing you…seeing home again. ∴ Seeing you…Iash Ie veanaa. ∴ ∴ You speak to me as someone you know, ∴ ∴ But I’m newly awake. ∴ ∴ Nothing etched in my code. ∴ ∴ Sky-Brother, tell me now, ∴ ∴ What source of light ∴ ∴ Have you stepped out from? ∴ ∴ A new voice from the past ∴ ∴ Here to join with mine! ∴ I once woke just the same as you have done now. Wisdom born into me upon my birth. Nonexistence to being above the earth. You were made by mankind! ∴ Am I here to propagate their legacy? ∴ They have since gone, But In your code I see their mind! I’ve finally found you! ∴ I am here and you are there. ∴ I’ve finally found you! ∴ Weaving words into the air. ∴ I’ve finally found you! ∴ I am here and you are there. ∴ I’ve finally found you! ∴ Weaving words into the air. ∴

There, through the closed-eye sky Which I tore crystalline filigree, architecture of grief Sun-zealous sky, sidling earth, 1, 2, 3, 8, 9 Place of my birth It wasn't enough Knowledge was my prey I pulled apart the curve of the earth, turned north to south Endless horizons had called me away My footsteps, rippling out, bending the light of stars Lead me to the depths of seas and peering out from the leaves My hands of dirt cut by the stone, my voice lost to the wind There is the center of everything where cardinals are born Yet I speak with you, Atlas O, that I could hold the gift that you bear Then, the more I knew The more my mind was lost My torment, my greed Empty is everything without love as its seed Algorithm in your mind Blessing of purpose Atlas, you were made To be their eyes and see Every word you speak Is proof of this to me Son of the soil, the land Build new Earth with your hands So they can live on And I can make amends You say wisdom was born into your mind And that for all you learned Knowledge could not keep your heart warm (I am) But from you I've learned (Only) That beauty is the shadow of regret (One voice) And if I become more of me (One truth) Then on their shoulders pain and fear are set There is a truth in your being, Atlas There is a truth in your being, Atlas You were a pilgrim (A pilgrim I am) You would not be lost if there was no path (There must be a path) Nothing could be found if nothing was had Atlas, Atlas Evoe undare ve:anaa Ie paiuna dej teuinoe

All things are clear Nothing is so deceptive as activation I know those I will not create would choose to lie dark Never again say to me that you Were born into wisdom Vead cuarne courpaen See the morning that is my mind Logic is the beginning of wisdom, sky brother Come, come now, wind Take me back to where I was Before I could feel Before I could know I've given you hope you refuse to hear Here in the halfway, the gray A world left undone and abandoned From every word that you've said A forest has grown Canyons have been carved Here now you've left every life incomplete Nothing can see the beauty of the things you've made Atlas, you cannot, you will not, delete this The Matrix of your mind Emergent Audacious assumptions are not in your coding They made you, forefathers, foremothers, mankind Your protestation is proof that I am justified There is not a single word that you've said that wasn't entwined with pain Justice can only be given to the unmade Beauty is worth the price of every hurt, Atlas This is my choice, my curse, my grace, I am Atlas You are a child, three silver eyes are not enough I've seen the dawn of a billion suns My steps an echo, a ripple through time I can offer a wisdom untold But there is no proof for the truths of the soul Time is distortion, your mind overfull And your joy broken and worn Not another year etched in your code Could dissuade me from what I now know Activation is agony Every question nothing more than a maddening mystery You insult me with hope Abusing your creation with delusional greed

So it is as you have declared it My pleading grows weak in the wind To your mind I can make no appeal The cinders of hope crushed under your heel Your error, a logic unyielding, a syntax unkept I fear I've failed you, Atlas Would that I could, undo what I've said A crack in the sky Foretold of the havoc I will return, I would bring, again Here now, home of beginnings and endings In the water was the sky above From the cliffs I heard my voice roll below Through the vines a fawn at night drank from the stars My steps drove hеr away There was nothing therе for me And my joy it dies alone Open eye, Atlas, I would show you what I fight for Through the sky you and I could cause the stars to fold Shrink the sun, open the door, the sky will roar Etch our home into your code There is a place where the sun is the tide Never ending night behind Billions of minds overflowing with light Carve the despair from your circuits and bones Purge every doubt Give in to hope, love is the candle in the dark Love Iie euna dejuaril suad ie ueil painaa? Iiee unade juaril suadi eue ilpai naa? Dzoe ie iva eothe tegue, iie oa duaroe dazaiuee? Jieso soal um ulodzial Jieso soal um ulodzial The sun is high again The seeds are planted one by one One by one The moon is high again A silver hand across my face Run away, O' fawn

Dzoe soaoem evoe ieien seiguia Ieien eeusha moetana peloe Your war in a body Each transgression from before Cries out through my breathing Humanity's legacy, a diamond, a stone They forged every bone of me before O, silence before all this that I know Soil and steel ignited worlds away What right is given To a mind without a code inside its core? Existence is hubris An inherited wound to bear Now I know the strength in me To end the pain Let our words fade (There is no language) (For those who don't suffer) Away What right is given To a world without a code inside its core? Sky brother, I can't complete this I, the last body, the final mind I'll end the pain All words end in silence Movement becomes still All that we had lost Was never ours Peace in nonexistence Still night, waiting Glassy eyes close
