He built his prison with poetry and small units of education that had no currency outside a web page. Disease ridden titans howled in the walls as he stared up to the oculus of his enlightenment. The small hole that sometimes let down the filtered majesty of dead stars.

"The universe is beautiful.
The universe is constantly in motion, animated.
Everything animated is beautiful.
Every particle of you an ecosystem.
Every breath an awakening.
Every action an orchestra."

"His neon soaked brain, etched in tragedy, took in the razor vamps drinking stem cell martinis while the house mistress danced alone to a Russian violin. The synaesthesia was wearing off and he couldn’t smell colors anymore but still the vapid red of Samiya’s dress smelled like sin and ecstasy."
