Celluloid Thoughts

A poem based on a strange dream I had a while ago.

 

I remain, questioning,

Contemplating constantly tenebrous consistencies

Then wonder wistful,

Do cancer cells ponder their existence?

 

Surly they know,

Even if acting upon simple chemical impulses.

 

What of free will?

Who’s to say that it’s any more free?

Compared to those we cannot see.

 

May we be part of,

Mere cells with thought,

Of a celestial organism?

Our lives basic processes of the whole.

What then of God, Allah, Jehovah?

Just primordial pontiffs of patience?

 

Remains the questioning, my curiosity enthralled as,

A deadly beldame chides,

The belligerent caprice of desire.

 

Just what is destined to become destiny?

 

Revealing ribald reveries reveling beyond the gates of consciousness

Subconsciously connecting the variable lost within veritable viscera

 

Left dormant under my doormats caress

Until Gollhovah garners the generous duress,

 

Whose disease,

 

Kills with ease,

 

Displacing faith,

 

Within the cells that wonder.

 

Trying woefully with rue, to localize illogical scions

Implanted only to control the common

 

Alas,

I merely remain, a cell intent to question the body

 

Adrift in a theoretically

Heretical reality.

Author's Note

Just for clarification, Gollhova is a reference to the deities i mentioned earlier in the piece.
