WHAT UNVEILS TODAY
long time coming
the archetype
of what this world
rejects, derides ...
an act of will
a massive task
that those outside
care nothing of
we press so hard
strive so mightily
to build a thing
new within the world
knowing that the mundane frame
sees nothing worthy
in the action
or the deed
the hours spent
must be hidden
lest the forces
of dull enforcement
erupt against such dreams
and in rage insist
how better used
would be this time
yet this may have
some gravity
which will warp the map
defining worlds
this may shape the way
all things occur
reordering systems
rearranging fate
and what just if
this realigns
our place
our purpose?
we have visions
of such days
dreams that maybe
we might attain
