-"Transcendence of Three Dimensions"-
Waking up is a silvery blur
Of things that are and things that were
Things that have not come to be
Have tripped onto the elevator to memory
Am I only halfway there?
How far 'til my reality tears?
The path on the ground has never been tread
The sky far above has a face on a head
The bloated maggots holding me to the ground

Far towards the East on a hill stands a machine

or oiled fingers glancing over knotted calves

I saw Lincoln crying, last night, in deepest slumber
My heart ached for him, his tears, so many in number
And although he seemed
-"Transcendence of Three Dimensions"-
Waking up is a silvery blur
Of things that are and things that were
Things that have not
Last night I had a dream
and you were there with me
so I held back my scream
you said, come on, this is our destiny
and I followed
