Rubik's Pyramid

Rubik's Pyramid
                                                  
Homo Sapiens — The upright, naked ape.
Most highly evolved sentient organism on Terra Firma.
Prone to childish behavior even in adulthood
(though it's rarely acknowledged or recognized).
Also weighed down by personal phantoms from the past
and the often oppressive forces of social conformity.
Otherwise; embryonic deity that yearns for Actualization:
An accomplished state that might harmonize the star-studded heavens with the living, breathing body of humanity's cosmic isolation.

No childhood without rebirth.
There aren't any skies in the absence of Earth.
Even Jesus descended to hell prior to his resurrection.
There's no transcendence without a sense of direction!

Perspective Analysis

Perspective Analysis

 

We are not the only witnesses 
Nor numen that wades currents
By riversides and oceans
Within a vast, unnamed expanse ...

Though our heads do dash against these stones here on the shore 

Since we can barely help but to think in contradictions 
Gravely unaware of the true scope of our visions
Forgetting that in the big picture relativity dissolves 

Into the reality that opposites don't in fact oppose
Nor do they actually preside as bi-polar compositions
Clear-cut propositions or unchanging absolutes
It is as always, a question of perspective.

Yet there lies the heart and matter of the mystery at hand: 

That when things lose their strictly human meaning 
They quite naturally regain (so to speak)
Their universal truthfulness within the silent mind of One beholder.
