Azathoth
Seized fragments of insight
Kernels of promise
Adrift the sea of chance
Comprehend eternity
Technocracy advance
Excruciating detail
Reality observed
To meet with expectation
Dreams of promise
Lies of concern
Intelligence bereft of reason
Progress with no joy
The idiot blind god
A prison of the mind
Skills are specialised
Into meaningless abstraction
Lives stripped of purpose
For efficiency of the hive
Resisting institutions
No mere subject
Servitude preordained
The rebelling free
Heroically search for meaning
From the dross of the stupid
Against prejudice
Without expectations
Defending their selfhood
Seduced by its illusion
Striving for validation
Despairing frail mortality
The idiot blind god
Slumbers on in a dream
"On nectar fly alights
Imbibing all with great delight
Neglectful of its fragile wing
Til the fall of deathly night"
Vaguely attending our senses
Evoked memory conflates perception
Of the world, fabricated
Not merely genetic code
Made manifest
But a swarming, heaving biome
Life's creative chaos
Sentient delusion
You idiot!
You're blind!
