Standing in striking majesty
Looms the fabrication
Transference to another world
Triumph of our culture
Passengers line expectantly
As the breathing masks descend
They await the sedative
So their journey can begin
Fumes cascade down the pipes
And greet the subjects housed
To transport through the Jaunt
The travellers are (drowsed)
(Drowsed) figures raptured instantly
Glisten through the portal
Apostles of the great machine
Glimmer in its threshold
Waiting in silent elegy
Through the long procession
Reverent breaths, expectantly
As the masks descend to lull narcotic sleep
A mind needs to be stilled
To travel through the gate
And madness will take hold
If you are awake
Transference through the Jaunt
A sedative descent
And tranquillised in droves
They wait to wake when home
For me the mask now descends
And prompts to breathe deeply
I hold my breath to the end
Close eyes to feign sleeping
Come to me
Exist in misery
I take your life
Transfer your mind
Within the Jaunt
Your time ticks differently
The body’s shell
Is left behind
I sought an epiphany
Desire to learn the concealed
Trapped within enduring thought
Longer than eternity
Infinity
Silently lies
Within a blink
A thousand years go by
Removed from time
Your thoughts will be set free
Immortal life
Immortal mind
You’ll reign in here
Eternally
