Aleph

Out of nothing I came

To Nowhere to return

Turning pages of life

As the blurred letters burn

 

Within starlight I sleep

On the edge of an unmarked coast

With cold suns into cosmos I leap

In the shadow of a spaceship ghost

 

Out of patterns I made

Timeline to an advent

Born of ashes of light

A failed experiment

 

On a great stage I live

I’m the chosen one; king of kings

Father & son of all who forgive

Am I the one pulling their strings?

 

Out of nothing I made

subjects of my long reign

To defy what’s to come

If no hope should remain

 

In the ashes I’m laid

The undying spirit of Mars

Buried in the strangest parade

Carrying the great crown of stars

 

N.B.

  1. Love the cosmic theme here! The description of this being is so vivid like a story from ancient mythologies. Great piece Nebojsa!

    • it is inspired by a lot of different mythologies.. which sort of end up being almost the same.. thanks for readin bro! 🙂

  2. As I’m reading this, I’m noticing that you & I are of the same frame of mind, this week.

    That King of Kings verse was dope!

    Another gem, bro.

    • not only this week 🙂 thanks for stopping by brother! 🙂

  3. I wanna come out of the shadows and fly in a spaceship ghost. You certainly take the reader to different places with this verse – places of wonder between the lines,

    • glad it invoked that kind of feeling.. thanks for reading 🙂

  4. Nice imagery, spaceship ghost, cold suns leaping into cosmos. Much to muse upon if you spend some time with it.

    • if it’ll make things clearer, it’s from the perspective of a creator – & I set the imagery that way so that could be either a god or human, depending on what you pay attention to.. thanks for reading 🙂

  5. I had to re-read, but I see in your previous comment that this is written from the perspective of a creator, so now it makes sense. You may be talking about Enki coming in his space ship? When you mention King of Kings, would that be Yeshua (Jesus)? Nice work!

    • I didn’t have a particular deity in mind while writing this, but if that’s how you see it, then you’re not wrong.. I only wanted to point out that, while human could be a god to some creatures, what we call god could be a human to some other, higher form of being.. you can think of this poem as a hypothesis.. & thank you for reading 🙂
