Why I Skip the First Chapter: A Poem by Lore

Caves.

Goddamn caves.

Lascaux,

Trois-Frères,

Chauvet.

Caves.

Hello random browser.

Aren’t you so shocked by the title of this book?

I know what will ease your mind:

Caves.

Once there was a human,

Who drew on a wall,

And now my religion is valid.

Caves.

Look at them, how old.

This Angel Crystal Magick Guide

Totally knows what it’s talking about.

Caves.

I was worried that Paganism

Wouldn’t express my primal self.

But now I feel better

Because the Paleolithic period

Was a thing.

Caves.

Robert Cochrane

Circled in a cave.

That was kind of cool.

I want to do that.

Caves.
