oracle
what oracle lays waste
the scene before me?
Gatekeepers whisper
codes for passage
answers misunderstand
the crafted questions
of Delusion + Trickery.
Oracle, I call you whore!
Street slut spewing
the nightfuck of dogma
and excusing tales.
Silence!
No words are needed
for debased questions,
no sounds need utter
shameful flattery.
Enough!
Service instead
those lingering
Wordless
at the gates.
oracle 2
there is a gateway to humanity.
At one side, supporting the archway
stand I
and I know there is Another
on the Other Side.
But it is misty
And darkening.
and I can’t quite make out
Who stands there
oracle 3
there is a boy standing, watching me
in this room.
It is night I have just awaken
and there he is
in the middle of the room
amongst the deep shadows.
I am not afraid.
The boy makes no attempt to speak
yet I know the boy it seems.
Recent/distant past ?
Same boy waiting at a street corner
At the gate to a camp
