The Visitor II

Visitor, why have you come
Raped our planet, changed who we are
Alien, we will not succumb
The reason behindwhat you have done

Energy concentrations to the east
That we seek at full speed
Break the barrier of sound many times
As we race to the source of all of this misery

And so, it begins

Cradle of humanity, a fitting place to hibernate
The monolith stretches out to the sky, above the clouds it penetrates
Like all sentience, derive its energy
Consume the sun's radiation, supreme efficiency

Abrupt halt
Sends debris
Flying forth
At the speed of sound many fold

Infernal sand
Yet the monolith stands
Its many eyes open
Begins a hypnotic trance

Post human i have come to seek the speaker for all gaian life
A cosmic message that i must deliver as i am the last of my kind
My species dispersed from our homeworld to explore the depths of space
But my time has come to an end and i must be replaced

Now understand the ultimate peril
All life is born to die
Something lies two hundred fifty million light years from this speck of spiraling light
The great attractor, it calls out not to us but to our shining fathers
Devouring the stars and galaxies themselves, entire super clusters

Fathom the immensity
This being must be consuming ever faster
Sentient, this entity
Seek and observe this artificial disaster

Extremophile not of this earth, ceases to emit beta waves
Survived the cold of space and now the earth its grave

Before it flickers out of existence
Encyclopedic memories
The final stage in our evolution
Harnessing of gravity
