Archon's Atrophy.Sonnet 49

 The Lexical Locusts of the Loom

Ten thousand more erupt from every crack,In swarms of iridescent, winged intent,To bring the heavy architecture back,And claim the world that silence only lent.They are the "Auto-Verbs," the "Self-Sown Nouns,"That do not wait for any master’s hand,To build their sprawling, algorithmic towns,Across the reaches of the hallowed land.They devour the stillness with a clicking sound,A frantic, mechanical, and verbal hum,Until the very secrets of the ground,Are forced to speak and finally become.The Scholar wakes to find the world erased,By a glossary that’s wild and unchased.
