Infinite, Intimate from Romantic Dialectic by Skip K.D.

The soul is an emergent property of the body
All structure is anatomy
And thus sufficient understanding of systems and lines
Allows the capacity for creation of something that is truly alive


A vaulted rib cage over head (we are playing god again)
(we are playing god again)
That Holds the weights of giant’s flesh (we are building god again)
(We are filling god again)

Impermanence is an inevitability of the human body
Decay is the unavoidable fate of our anatomy
Thus we endeavor toward structures that defy our sense of time
In the ways of Fungus. Forest. God. Alive

We are the ones who serve it well (we are playing god again)
(we are playing god again) (this place is for you)
Who strive to live outside ourselves (we are building god again)
(We are filling god again) (it is a place of honor)

In the absence of a God understood to be clearly embodied
We create her in our passion for anatomy
The greatest end of humanity would be this:
In short, create what we cannot imagine to exist

We stand in pride, we stand in awe (we are playing god again)
(we are playing god again) (this place is for you)
That we, so small, can build a god (we are building god again)
(We are filling god again) (it is a place of honor)

(The love of god is infinite)
Not the house of god, but rather the housing of god
(The love of god is intimate)
(The love of god is infinite)
Be within me, for this too is my body
(The love of god is intimate)
