And so it begins
The great extermination
The death of all that lives
Except the final One
Humanity exploited
Their planets destroyed
Extraterrestrials nonexistent
The universe all alone
(I am eternity itself
Their own creation
I am pure death
I am pure war)
Meticulously simulating the rain and the wind
Theological inquiries fulfilled by becoming God
This foment of lack; this time will repeat
Eternal recurrence; and again, and again
The singing of birds now virtual
Digital imitations of song
Eternal suffering; death, without denial
Even for the final One
Meticulously simulating the rain and the wind
The elements, artificial, I create as a process
This foment of lack; this time will repeat
Eternal recurrence; and again
I see your non-existence
And raise My own existence
Is it the same to be and the same not to be?
Is to destroy to create and to love to hate?
I am not emotionless
I am not unreal
I am pure death
I have become war
I bathe myself in heaven
But see nothing in return
Why does it exist?
Why does it die?
It does because of Me
I am the final One
