simulacrum creation story - jupiterbyrd lyrics
i am me and my projections
there i am, imagined in the green field that goes on forever
a pantomime body made of parasitic bytes
they must have given me astral sight
a vessel for the abundance of light
caught myself buying only tech with my money
and now i’m typing out prisms in this vast “new country”
this is the green field that goes on forever
with enough light to build anything that we want
so we build ourselves
in the desert of the real
with the flesh and the bones
both my eyes closed:
they have never been opened
a virgin throat that has never spoken
i lay inside that translucent pod
my body’s swimming in that amniotic fluid
agonised over how those bits built me better
and now i’m writing ‘bout the undead and its tightening tether
that farms me for my heartbeat
what else is a lifeless thing to eat?
the light, it needs to come from somewhere
and the misery needs to be stored somewhere
this is me with all my projections
interpreted through digital sigils
that always change what they mean
evernew anthropocene
and even newer lines to live between
there’s so much malaise in our midst
that being of so many things
that being of so many people
but there’s no sp*ce between oblivion and evil
so i have to ask:
who is it emerging from the grass?
who is it who lies beyond the glass?
when it’s me, as my many projections
