Dead Leaves
08:40
|
|||
|
i wish to die as a dog:
unburied, exposed
to the light of a lonely grove
at the foot of a hill. i wish to lie
on a bed of dead leaves;
to hear the song of the wind
in the trees. i wish to be seen
by the sun, to commune
with the moon as the beasts
of the daylight and mourners swoon.
let them not mark
or adorn my tomb
with precious oils. let them
not pray to a lifeless room.
let me be fodder for flowers that bloom.

Unfettered
08:54
|
|||
|
i walk upon the scattered
bones of gods
laid lifeless on the rocks
around me
i walk upon the withered
faith of wolves
unfettered by the curse
of eternity
spawn of epicurus
son of sin and flesh
rise up from within my heart’s abyss
seize and overtake me
liberate my mind
from inside
death will wreck my body
the trenches will digest me
but for all my waking hours i am unchained
drown
you’ve no foundation
burn
you’re no salvation
belie
the hope of nations
hail lucifer
hail the self owned life
hail wisdom’s light
live unfettered

Son of the Morning
07:39
|
|||
|
i am god and none shall stand before me
in this heathen moor. there in the morning,
gaze upon the sun and thou wilt know me
as thyself; new life within thee dawning.
seek me in the air and aethyr summits.
find me in the essence of the starlight.
know me by the fierceness of my trumpet
following the countenance of midnight.
i bring forth the esoteric wisdom
of the ages in my sovereign presence.
i am called the catalyst of schism.
i am called the challenger of essence.
thou shalt never bow to me in yielding;
only let me rise up from within thee

Essence
07:59
|
|||
|
in a dream, so i said,
the hours turn to minutes and the minutes turn to years
some have slept, so i said,
for countless hours in a moment’s time
all that is and ever has been
is shifting and swirling; dispersing
all that was never has been. it is done
i’m awake,
so i think,
so i scream
i’m alive
i have died
i was never born
“unreal city, under the fog of a winter dawn, a crowd flowed over the london bridge, so many, i had not thought death had undone so many”
come into the city
feel the fire inside
see the scars i carry
from the night that i died
see the scars that i carry
from the night that i died

Apostate
09:49
|
|||
|
fornication, a covenant lost
to even the mountains’ memories
the idol of saints was crushed on this day
the pieces will scatter and fade
free the apostate
life and death are as one
i can stand before the sun
victory is won
all is made new
oh, the stones quiver
oh, to taste the flesh
oh, the sinner must face the sword
so shall you purge evil from your midst
oh, the lord shivers
at the sight of a sovereign flesh
oh, to drink from the fountain of death
i do not worship the hearsay
of the proxy of prophets past
i do not fear the voices
of men who fear the flesh
apostate

Mandala
11:07
|
|||
|
“let me not mar that perfect dream by an aural stain, but so adjust my daily night that it may come again”
forlorn
gone away
it never ends
needles pierce my lungs
forgotten
a tibetan mandala
fear
the world’s end
but i still hear your voice
and i still feel your embrace
and just for a moment i’m home
when the lights pass away
and the night smothers the day
hold fast, my love. you are safe
when the famine has come
and your courage is gone
and think that you haven’t been strong
when the lights pass away
and the night smothers the day
hold fast, my love. you are safe
hold fast, my love
hold fast, my love
hold fast, my love. you are safe

Revolt of the Angels
12:19

Ezekiel 28:13-19 KJV
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee.
All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more.
