* God made the sky,
air, Earth and heavens

* Breathed life into you Eve

* Demanded your reverence

* A tour of the grounds,
offered dominion

* A dowry enough for
relations hymenean

* The creatures of Earth
witnessed your dynastic birth

* To rule, to subdue, a
suitable helper for you

* You tore a rib from your
flesh, gave life from your chest

* Flowers, garlands, and herbs

* To beast, bird,
insect, and worm

nothing to hide

nothing to hide

angels' celestial favor

and flesh from her flesh

bypassing a creche

must take the fall

stop God's little malcontents

* To strip them of favor,
demand subservience

life from your ribs

envious of his kids

nothing to hide

* You knew we had
nothing to hide

* Millennia have passed
and not much changed

* Far be it that I should
write thee sin or blame

* Or think the
unbefitting holiest place

* Whose bed is undefiled
and purely chaste

* Of virtue, and
place, and innocence

* Defaming, impure
God takes offense

* Whatever hypocrites they talk

you punish those who are not

is it, so listen bitch

* Cuts off God's dick

(upbeat music)

- [Voiceover] One, even
crying became obsolete

because there was nothing
tangible left to lose.

Your death was prevented
and your lives extended

as a program running
within a cyborg.

They fix glass eyeballs

with cameras enclosed
with wire lasing

into the remains of your brain.

Your glass eyes blinking

fresh green light behind them,

could identify the blunder

and the grass bare path
which leads to your garden

full of hydrangeas and roses.

That was your daughter,

it is your daughter.

You know her well.

Two: the breakdown
was inevitable

the loss of technology the
supposed end of humanity.

People finally
experienced grief and fear

as the programs built inside
cyborgs stopped running.

Suddenclicks and breaks

creating quick death

or long drawn out pain.

An overwhelming realization

of existence,

flailing and failing
to grasp the fleeting,

resulting in a gentle fading

of what they used to call life.

Escaping your fingers
in grey pulling whisps.

This is what you've
missed and what

in a quick few seconds
breathe out and loose.

- [Voiceover] She who
weakened or uprooted

or impoverished the meaning
of her name is a lie,

seductress, enchantress,
distructress.

These trusses did she cut.

Revile her name,

lament her sin original,

call her dominatrix of shame.

Reduce her to the
weapons you see,

tits and ass.

Never understanding that
she dances a pas de deux.

Not victim and prey,
but lovers two.

Samson and Delilah

No poor sucker and
his femme fatale.

He, seven braids and the
burden of lonely strength.

She, a compassionate ear,

and the skills of
razor and shears.

Delilah, she knows
that history allows

the victors to
write their story.

Sage woman, she knows that
the win of trickery is a loss.

Delilah a person to
carry strength for two.

She knows that
love is not combat,

the way that all who love do.

- [Voiceover] And then
there is the body.

You may remember the body,

remembers, and what
the body remembers

remembers the body.

There is your body.

Your body is your body and

one body is separate.

And your body as one
body is separate.

Your body is a
series of barriers

and descriptors

keeping you apart
from other bodies

and another body
can see your body

can touch your body,

can touch another body,

and a body can hold a body.

Can press against a body

and one body can fit
around another body.

And another body can
fit inside another body.

Your body can do this
with another body

until it forgets
in brief choking

splashes that it is

or ever even has been a body.

You may almost even
imagine that there is no

difference between your
body and this other body

if only for one or
two seconds ever.

If even you don't remember
the body with remember.

And a body can grow from a body,

from your body a body
can become another body.

One other separate body
that can remember a body.

A body can remember another body

after the other body
stops being a body.

That's a thing all bodies do

is stop being bodies
that are separate

from other bodies.

And other bodies become bodies

and unbecome bodies.

And there is a body that
remembers all bodies,

I think maybe somewhere
in that stupid

uncolored place you
almost trip over

at the tail end of your orgasm.

There might be something there

where is one other body

other than your body

or your lovers body,

or your mothers body

another body that holds a body

that remembers.

This body remembers the bodies
your body can hold it all

and remember your body

remembers your body.
