The Architect
On the edge of this realm, there sits the Architect
He creates an intricate universe that he works to perfect
Taking a firm hand, his tools to every aspect
There is not one atom he seems to neglect
But the universes he creates are not his selfless subjects
It is not the will of his own, the cosmos reflects
Because all the Architect does is observe and protect
For it is the free will of its inhabitants, he yearns to respect
In the scape of his mind, he sees all as equal
From mountains and pebbles, to sheep and people
As they all rest in his setting of no good nor evil
However, there is no sympathy to men’s hideous upheaval
There is no such act that he deems as lethal
Death of life is just conservation, deceitful
In the judgment of death, he is not legal
For that is the job of the Gods and Goddesses, high and regal
He does not merely live, but omnipresent, he exists
Floating a vast hyperspace, peacefully adrift
Though he has the immense power of the dimension to eclipse
He chooses to stare into the face of the dark abyss
Balancing his fantastic power, for greed of it is amiss
Acting as necessary, from his will he resists and desists
He works solely in matter’s great twist and untwist
For a titanic presence such as him, a billion is swift
As time marches on and eons pass by
He lasts to observe his universes to die
Then to create new ones, from the carnage, they fly
With his great wrench, he puts stars in the sky
Then watches as his creations descend into the vie
Once again, they fall under his cosmic eye
Then the dreaded cycle continues, goodbye after bye
Until he says “No more, here on and hereby”
In each universe, the great Gods stand to rule
To our place in this universe, they are not fools
This is the hearth, and to the fire, we’re fuel
With fates ranging, some good and some cruel
And some in an ostensibly nothingness cesspool
It is painless to think that life is a precious jewel
But not so much as the universe begins to drastically cool
At the end of these days, the macrocosm is but a ghoul
In the eyes of the architect, our time has been served
Intensely have our interactions and thoughts been observed
Many bow down and believe it to be deserved
While others strive, for carbon life to remain preserved
Only at the end of it all is the perception truly curved
But on the edge of reality, there is a place, unnerved
In a cold, desolate spot, there stands the Observer
The last of the human life, reserved on the burner
The Observer is truly the last of intelligent kind
The rise and the fall of the gift of the mind
The cumulation of the human race, he can leap across stars unbind
Accepting with honor, the demigod title he’s been assigned
To face the convoluted understanding of that he is inclined
He is weak, as he thinks he is part of the best designed
He is not blessed to have lived in a universe so refined
But simply by favorable chance and luck combined
He journeyed long and with difficulty over vast universal debris
To meet the architect, to bring back the time of Gods and carefree
Only at the edge of the dimension could he see the Almighty
The Observer cried, “My Lord, so grand and so free,
Will you not revive the land I so direly wish to see?”
The Architect stilled for a moment, his presence like an endless sea
With his infinite voice, he said, “So elegant with your plea.
But son, you’re mistaken, there is nothing so grand about me”
