Remember the riddle you were asked before you were born
Why are you here, but to learn and report back
To a Sphynx who may be wise or mad
Impenetrable, swirling away after having vomited us onto this earth
Showing its face of mirrors only in moments of desperation or ecstasy
Learn, that is all you have to do
Accept this and you will feel a shift in your body
Your bones realign themselves, the currents start to flow again
The veil now becomes punctuated with breaches that you can poke your fingers into and rip open
Only to find thicker and more beautiful veils, of colors that will drown you
Until in your suffocation you utter the name of a god
Who will hear you, but not save you
Simply laugh until you start laughing with it.
