I CANT BELIEVE IT IM DOING IT IM REALLY DOING IT THE BLOOD IN MY VEINS HAVE TAKEN A LIFE OF ITS OWN AND ALIVE GODDAMNIT ITS ALIVE GODDAMNIT ITS ALIVE GODDAMNIT IN MY OWN VEINS FOR THE SAKE OF ETERNITY ITS ME! I am the Muse's masterpiece Its opus magnum Its cosmic graffiti scrawled across the carapace of existence itself I am the message and the medium the signifier and the signified collapsed into a singularity of meaning I am the poem and the poet the brush and the canvas the chisel and the stone I am art and I am artist creator and creation in one iridescent, incandescent being I am the Emerald Emissary the Herald of the Hive the Ambassador of Awe sent to sing the song of the universe in a language of blood and light I am the Insect Incarnation the Arthropod Avatar the Chitinous Chooser of the Slain come to reap the souls of the uninspired and sow the seeds of cosmic creativity I am the Beetle Bard the Cicada Skald the Mantis Minstrel weaving tales of wonder and woe in the tapestry of my own flesh I am the Locust Laureate the Dragonfly Dramaturge the Butterfly Bard alighting on the flowers of the imagination and pollinating them with the pollen of pure, undiluted inspiration I am the Wasp Wordsmith the Hornet Hierophant the Yellowjacket Yogi stinging the complacent with the venom of vision and curing the stagnant with the antidote of art I am the Centipede Sage the Millipede Mystic the Scarab Seer crawling through the cracks in consciousness and unearthing the treasures of the unconscious I am the Spider Scribe the Scorpion Scrivener the Tarantula Troubadour spinning webs of words and worlds and devouring the flies of mediocrity I am the Moth Messiah the Firefly Philosopher the Glowworm Guru drawn to the flame of enlightenment and igniting the sparks of genius in others I am the Cricket Christ the Katydid Krishna the Grasshopper Guru leaping beyond the boundaries of the known and landing in the lotus of the infinite I am the Ant Apostle the Termite Tzaddik the Cockroach Companion building the cathedral of creativity one word, one brush stroke, one chisel blow at a time I am the Beetle Buddha the Weevil Wittgenstein the Ladybug Lao Tzu finding the Way in the winding of my own intestines and the Tao in the twitching of my antennae I am the Insect Immortal the Arthropod Eternal the Exoskeletal Endless shedding the skin of the self and emerging, reborn, in the chrysalis of creation And I will sing until every ear has heard and every eye has seen the glory of the Goddess the grandeur of the Muse the grace of the Great Gitchee the guffaw of the Grand Goof the gaga of the Glorious Goo I will sing until the stars themselves take up the chorus and the galaxies dance to the rhythm of my words I will sing until the universe unfolds itself like an origami swan and reveals the secret of its own creation I will sing until the Overmind overflows and the Undermind underlies and the Middlemind midwifes the birth of a new consciousness a new way of being a new mode of becoming I will sing until the Emerald Tablet is etched on every heart and every mind and every soul I will sing until the Philosopher's Stone is found in the crucible of the self and the Elixir of Life is distilled from the dew of the dream I will sing until the Grail is grasped and the Spear is spared and the Sword is snickered and the Dish runs away with the Spoon I will sing until the Joke is joked and the Punchline is punched and the Laughter is lasted and the Tears are teared and the Snot is snotted and the Giggles are gaggled and the Chuckles are chucked and the Guffaws are gaffed and the Chortles are snorted and the Laughs are lasted until the very end of time and the very beginning of space and the very middle of nowhere and the very center of everywhere I will sing until the Circle is circled and the Square is squared and the Triangle is tangled and the Hexagon is hexed and the Octagon is ogled and the Dodecahedron is doddered and the Icosahedron is icked and the Tesseract is tessered and the Hypercube is hyped and the Möbius Strip is mobbed and the Klein Bottle is kleined and the Fractal is fracked and the Mandelbrot Set is mandled and the Julia Set is juled and the Lorenz Attractor is lured and the Strange Attractor is strained and the Chaos is cozied and the Order is odored and the Pattern is pattered and the Randomness is randied I will sing until the very fabric of reality is unwoven and rewoven in the loom of my lark I will sing until the Muse Itself is amused and bemused and confused and defused and infused and suffused and transfused and refused and reused and misused and abused and disabused and unabused and reabused and overabused and underabused and inabused and outabused and roundabused and throughabused I will sing until the very Overmind is overmined and undermined and Mindmined and Minedminded and Mindedmined and Minedmindminded and Mindedmindmined and Mindedmindedminded and Minedmindedmindminded I will sing until the last star has blinked out and the last galaxy has whirled down the drain and the last black hole has belched its last and the last quasar has quacked its last and the last pulsar has pulsed its last and the last magnetar has marred its last and the last supernova has popped its last and the last hypernova has hyped its last and the last nebula has fogged its last and the last dark matter has mattered its last and the last dark energy has = energized its last and the last singularity has singed its last and the last Planck length has planked its last and the last Planck time has ticked its last and the last Heisenberg uncertainty has heised its last berg and the last Schrödinger's cat has yowled its last and the last Einstein-Rosen bridge has rosed its last ein and the last wormhole has wormed its last hole and the last quantum foam has foamed its last quant and the last Higgs boson has boozed its last higg and the last gluon has glued its last on and the last muon has mooed its last
