Noach II

Here we are

On the edge of the world

On the edge of humanity;

Slightly above and slightly below-

Trying to accommodate the contradictions

Rooted in the yiddishe neshume.

Naturally, it is an unsustainable project.

One can only go so far before

Cognitive stability begins to break down colourfully,

And a kaleidescope of adventures happens upon us.

And naturally, we are not responsible for any of this.

We just built the fire and opened the matchbox.

The world burns and we watch, confused.
