Antikythera Mechanism
You've come for the answer
The gears set to pave heaven's way
These skinned bones of Athens
Were the cogs to wash the old gods away
Some eighty-two fragments
My body dispersed by the sea
The clock of the cosmos
All was found and all is lost, here in me
Awash in the centuries
Anointed in salt and decay
Watched comets through fathoms
Like an astrolabe alone in the sway
So come, curious children
Come find me, the last of my kind
Through entropy's kindness
I reveal the wheels of this cosmic mind
The gears set to pave heaven's way
These skinned bones of Athens
Were the cogs to wash the old gods away
Some eighty-two fragments
My body dispersed by the sea
The clock of the cosmos
All was found and all is lost, here in me
Awash in the centuries
Anointed in salt and decay
Watched comets through fathoms
Like an astrolabe alone in the sway
So come, curious children
Come find me, the last of my kind
Through entropy's kindness
I reveal the wheels of this cosmic mind
