The Ouroboros?

This One is simple.

The snake eating itself
Is suffering from starvation,
While trying for an egg.

It thinks
By the act of consumption
That it can give birth to something,
Rather than lapse
Back into nothing.

An allegory for those who steal, bastardize, destroy, and desecrate philosophy;
But ultimately, an allegory
For the evolution of those without compassion & patience.

Because those without
Are only eager
For more nothing.
Toxoplasmosis and the fly's immunity
"What does it profit a man to gain the world but forfeit his soul?"

Serket,
Nervous
Systems
Circuits
O vay.
O-kay
O-kay
All day.

From the mother ship not just another them - ha.
Make any photo lens - pop from the drum kit - naw.
Show you what lucky is watching other men fall.
I got ****** hands every time  I write now.
But I guess everybody writes now.
You just lack the right styles
And they just sitting there hoping that life finds em.
I've been written here watching all these poems vibrate.
