This is the death of the former self and the rebirth of a poisonous new tree: venomous, caustic, seething with the raw destruction visited on those who pretend that Eden still exists, the embrace of the heart's desire to reject control of its desire, beckoning humanity to quit destroying itself by worshipping gods that perpetually kill them, to choke the life from the false gods within them and to find their place in the stars. Paradoxically, the gods of death are given the proverbial middle finger, their corpses becoming the fertile seed of an insideous tree that destroys its way through the cosmos. This is madness, this is death, this is the beast that eats itself.
