the cube
in dream of god,
i rise in elevator
among ducts and catwalks
in dark power block
approach distant light
male and female cylinders
vast intelligence
of non-living god
cube was empty
but filled now
with billions
in internet borg
seven of nine divorce
gave power to obama
and smart phone
slave masters
cube in mecca
muslim collective
jihad cry resistance futile
circle summons dark goddess
witch of materialist west
meets witch of
fundamentalist east
ghost in machine
names me 8472
my alien species
and foe of borg
