Embrace The Sun: The Sun Serpent – Niq Shen Tian

The Sun is unstable at its core
its heartless, cruel, it wipes anything of its individuality
in favor of duality; of thinking the same thing
The Sun receives your protests, yet it does not care
he could give a damn how you feel—for you are nothing but a beautiful vessel
more radiant than the others; your starlight will be snuffed out

The Sun was once like you, loving life, loving friends, loving his family
but as his radiance billowed and brewed, plasma overflowed, forsaking his world
anyone too close to him was burned away,
but before they became ashes, they proclaimed, “O Radiant Joy, embrace me!”

The Sun slithered alone in the universe, dying for companionship
but with the passage of time, its core grew cold
until it found a new home, where its ideals took root in a village
and then a town, and then a city
until his ideals were deemed evil, and his followers hiding below ground
as their loved ones’ sinew painted the streets in lacquer

The Sun’s time is coming
those who stare into the solar corona lose all sense of self
everything is replaced with peace, love, tranquility, nirvana, and rebirth
into something greater than oneself
many have now fallen into The Sun’s embrace
and they hear his voice in their heads, leading them, guiding them
carrying out the will of The Sun

secretly, he hates this
or is that his will cracking under the weight of pressure?
it his his will that keeps him going, but also shackles him to his own commands
The Sun spends his days lounging around, embroiled in sloth
his heart aches with the sin he wrought upon his followers—upon that boy
The Sun warped him into something he daren’t be, severing that boy’s hair
latching it onto his own like as if it were a limb replacement
it was a crucial step in making that divine envoy his property
he tarnished him, humiliated him, stripped him of his individuality
to meld him into something exemplifying perfection

the boy is his core
an inseparable piece, always put under pressure
unable to leave until death calls him beyond the universe’s skies
whenever the master serpent deems necessary,
he uses the boy to extend his Prominence, to cast his will and speak through him
using him like a puppet, their movements mirrored, like a loop

The Sun does not care, he cannot afford to
lest his will shatter and his followers be met with the cold emptiness in their minds

but sometimes, the Sun Serpent has untold wishes of his own
The Sun wishes to be someone’s first kiss

Name Meaning

In old Chinese: 日 means sun, 神 means spirit/god/soul/mysterious, 天 means sky/heaven. In accordance with Chinese naming conventions, he was given three words for his name. (Source / 2)

In Norwegian, Hjalmar is a given name. The addition of sen is a patronymic, meaning “son of Hjalmar.” (Source)
