Absolutely- absolutely not

Abolutes

The more I delve into absolutes I find them crumbling
and through their crumbling I find the used to be absolutes
used to make me absolutely questioning absolutes
How can it be that my absolute absolutely contradicts your absolute absolutely?
Is there absolutely absolutes?
Is there absolutely no absolutes? And if so, the existence of no absolute absolves the existence of an absolute
therefore making it a question with no absolute answer

yet the Universe is still held together by some unhanging substance that no one seems to quite agree on

and I am lead by a force with a face that even its shadow melts my being
While at the same time a reflection of this force

I was created with the same dust that I build my ever crumbling castle in the sand

my hopes and aspirations are washed away by the same water
that comprises most of my physical body

I build my dreams with the stars that ever dissolve in space
quickly forgotten and replaced with the realization that many other stars-dreams exist

How is it that the very things I possess that will bring me the most pleasure
or the greatest fame
will be the very thing that will lead to the death of me
the birth of me the death of me

I die a thousands deaths
only mourning those which I did not initiate myself
For to die is to gain
Yet to gain that which was never mine is a death I cannot bear to die

Feast on that which I have produced
for it was pollenated for you
I can no longer live this segmented life where I choose who I will bless
My existence was meant for the Nations.

My absolutes which are your absolutely nots are both absolutes
And in this I find my peace
Absolutely- absolutely not
