"The Cybaerian Sleep"
is an interpretation
of the growing detachment
of human evolution (technology)
from nature.
Winged Gaeia, now in chains;
once the symbol of faith,
a desire to believe,
has begun to transform
into a digital being.
This suspension has been
a chambre of torment
until her mahogany age
came to an end,
while the silence attempts
to soften her will
to change the darker sides of fate;
But not even the loneliest hours
of midnight
can deteriorate this heart
of euphoria and metallic lace,
at least not as long
as the technological kings
continue sleeping thru the race.
