Meaning is mysterious
To itself. There are few things
More terrifying
Than humans in victory.
(Flaming asteroid crashes
Come to mind.) At the moment
Of triumph, their righteousness
Overwhelms with the joy
Of justified destruction.
They burn all prior meanings,
Execute its exegetes,
And smash things generally.
Meaning thus lost, made, preserved,
Turns mysterious again.
