Serpent monolith
Exhaling cipher
Of millennial doubt


Carved in soil
Erect in myth

Memory
Of soul
Of blood

Before, and again

Reborn

Radiant prismatic
While atoms radiate
Decomposition

Of timeless space

In flesh

Through cipher
By fire


Breathe life
Where none is found


Nothing
Reflects somethingness
Through millennia

Of monolithic
Memory
