Forgive Durden Genesis
[Narrated by Aaron Weiss]:
This is the beginning and the end. The rise and the fall.
Our gait will begin its saunter at the source, where the infant learns to crawl.
[Thomas Dutton playing Ahrima and Casey Crescenzo playing O the Scientist]:
Place your hand on mine, untie your mind.
Let your bloated brain balloon and float away.
Wet the end of the thread.
Thimble upon your index.
Set the needle on its path,
Bobbing up and down and past.
Tears and seams all turn to one,
With every stitch and each spool spun.
Feed the line through its eye,
Draw it from the other side.
Pull the strand to satisfy
The need to compose,
The genetic gap.
The scientific half
The detailed blueprint,
Swept under carpets.
All we did was spread the eye of the silver splinter.
We simply planted the seed and nursed it through winter.
The rest is up to you to do with what you'll do.
To learn and love and laugh,
Till the cycle circles back.
I'll just separate, weigh anchor, disengage.
Divide and disappear, I'll see you in the mirror.
[Narrated by Aaron Weiss]:
O the Scientist was the author and the architect.
The angels were His ink slingers, His actors and actresses.
His two purest talents were Ahrima and Nidria, two destined hearts,
Bound by the same idea; the unrelenting constancy of love and hope
Can rescue and restore you from any scope.
In her, Ahrima confided his curbing frustration.
His gifts had been exhausted.
Oh, how they'd misused them.
She averted his passion and eased his blood.
And so he confessed it to her, he had fallen in love.
A slave to your eyes.
