Poem by David Sky
(Trigger Warning: Karens be advised that this poem contains profanity)
Why not say it, that DNA entwined looks like two snakes fucking?
Snakes fucking, O wow what the hell kind of building block is that!? Is this the Ouroborus, the snake eating it´s own tail.
DNA read left to right just as you read this left to right, whoever you are, you full on goddamn miracle reading a full on goddamn miracle - the sequences being mirror reflections of each other, that hall of mirrors that is a vision of eternity itself.
Over billions of years now these core, base DNA strands span unfathomable strides of time intact while mountain ranges come and go, come and go, and even the continents themselves march across the face of the earth like infinitesimally slow moving gargantuas over these eons of geologic time. In fact, of everything on this earth, it is only our own DNA itself that weathers a world of change unchanged.
And this is our heritage arising from the dust and returning to the dust, these DNA-Body-Machines of ours vessels for the divine.
Our true selves skip off this world like flat stones skipping off of a the surface of a pond, like blinding flashes of pure, white light, we pierce the darkness, again and again and again, as if each and every one of us is Zeus on Mount Olympus raining down our lightening bolts upon the face of the planet.
Is Eternity then this ecstatic fire consumed and consuming at once or a snake eating its own tail: or … or, a bit of both and even more?
