Ode to Destruction - Apr 14

Though matter may not be destroyed, the form must be deformed; absolute fluidity demands—with absolute rigidity— that bonds made break free from an unstable frame.— Erratic molecules and particles swarm beyond the confines of lucidity; But we, in stupor (and stupidity), (poor things), give to fluidity a name… I mean to say: Destruction is a must! For,—given that something new’s to be built—, creation draws from the dead flower’s wilt. The energy that binds two atoms:tight: is Love, attraction in the highest light!— I mean to say: Destruction is the Just!
