Hive Mind I: Convergent Evolution
Behind veils of cosmic gloom
Looms a caliginous body in distant space
In its murky shadows lie forgotten moons
In crimson twilight it crawled and moved
It arose from crowded seas
Writhing out of strange ancient waves
Adapted to breathe the miasmic breeze
Advances in cognition it made
Adapted to breathe the miasmic breeze
Respiration, oxygenic energy evolved
Perfected, proliferated
Its seething masses rapidly expanding into air and soil
Enveloping this world in hideous forms and predatory nights
Its mutations enabling survival
Displacing all systems of life
Feeding within... the living shell
The birth of mind primordial
The seed of cold intelligence
Predation driving evolution
Its sensory perception magnified
Cognitive abilities running rampant
As the first swarms cloak the sky
Through exploitation of each host collective knowledge only grew
Its inexorable ascent accelerating over time
The coalescing of the hive brought forth a calculating mind
Hidden for dark aeons from the light
A malefic entity of thought
A shifting current down below
Abhorrent echoes in the dark
Looms a caliginous body in distant space
In its murky shadows lie forgotten moons
In crimson twilight it crawled and moved
It arose from crowded seas
Writhing out of strange ancient waves
Adapted to breathe the miasmic breeze
Advances in cognition it made
Adapted to breathe the miasmic breeze
Respiration, oxygenic energy evolved
Perfected, proliferated
Its seething masses rapidly expanding into air and soil
Enveloping this world in hideous forms and predatory nights
Its mutations enabling survival
Displacing all systems of life
Feeding within... the living shell
The birth of mind primordial
The seed of cold intelligence
Predation driving evolution
Its sensory perception magnified
Cognitive abilities running rampant
As the first swarms cloak the sky
Through exploitation of each host collective knowledge only grew
Its inexorable ascent accelerating over time
The coalescing of the hive brought forth a calculating mind
Hidden for dark aeons from the light
A malefic entity of thought
A shifting current down below
Abhorrent echoes in the dark
