Lent its Aberration

Lent its Aberration

A Poem by Onoma

The stake goes up...flesh snaps as if
flames were fingers.
Of mind this stake, night's slated release--
thieving, voiding the pages of self-fulfilling
prophecy.
Curses and blessings exchange tongues--
the hour falls from its hand.
Stars stir as wind chimes, tunneled from
mind to body, body to mind...timelessness.
The anthropomorphized, and all its divine
manifestation exempt.
What's Christ to Cross, a matter of Jeopardy.
The trial synchronous with the fire--forethought,
afterthought perceive their falsity in a moment
and vanish.
Consequently, a phenomenon ensues
whereupon the mind exudes no mind...
what's mindlessness to madness.
Its rhetorical question has lent its aberration.
