No Such Species

 

What form is this to behold 

Concealed beneath hooded cloak 

Cain in hand to crooked stand 

It cannot be man 

With swallowed tongue and labored breath 

Words follow like shadows of death 

Beneath cold facade 

No creature of god 

could ever understand 

A heart for religion 

And yearning for women 

Unnatural joys of

unidentifiable origins 

The markings its face 

Tell of mothers disgrace 

One way or another you'll pay 

Think back to the time 

When ever you toyed with heaven 

Who's to say it isn't heaven 

That holds your skin as collateral 

I don't believe the name it gave me 

The image reads like ancient weaponry 

In this inhuman machine 

This mindless mass of lethargy  

There is no such thing 

Whatever conception you have or had

No such species 

It cannot be man 

Who are you to say what I have become 

Fractured thoughts like rivers run 

Twisted lines for unfinished times 

From father to mother to son 

I would have everything you've done 

I know I've seen you before, and I 

Think I love you 

Triangular Entanglements

 You have started seeing yourself 

as the ultimate wrong

Just as everybody else 

seems to have begun

The promises of your youth 

have surely led you on 

Promise me you won't believe

In the promises of their god

You have strayed so far my dear 

You stayed within and without 

To all, I trust, you must adhere 

The evidence is all around

Tho I want you more than anything 

Sure as day will turn to dawn 

You annihilate my very being  

And I know it won't be long

Before I'm rid of your rhetoric  

From the devil's hellish lair 

To call me wicked, to call me sick  

A word before death, "Despair!"

Molecule

 I used to watch, to bathe in cloth 

Where caves are wet and hills are soft 

Where flowers bloom below soil and stars 

The knot was strong, the rope was taut 

What turned to foil in glowering gloom 

Eyes like ice through a shattering moon

To hear your words, echoing, glancing,

To contemplate your glowing silhouette

And feel the hours adhere to stone 

A moment in time where all is shown  

I will never desire to recall or imagine,

One cycle of life lost and alone 

I know it's more than bitterness and spite 

Keeping you alive, keeping you bright  

For love is light and light is life 

Resisting me ardently, desperately tonight

And like cells, wherever I form, I must multiply 

Elf Wound

 I sense an evil presence 

A poisonous effervescence

To drench in stench 

And mesmerizingly quench

With deadly lessons   

Beneath the slaughtered stars 

something to justify 

Or merely legitimize ours  

Inside marrow, 

under microscopes, 

we move to music,

manipulate futures 

To better serve desire  

Are we not in good hands?

Do we not look saved?  

Tonight, I redefine hope

Tonight, I redesign nature 

From thoughts of blood 

desires flow

Secretly, sacredly    

I was born to be a forgiver,

Born to carry a gospel of truth 

He who sees me, 

sees all. How is it 

I have fallen so far from you? 

The proof is in profanities, 

Passed on by kiss of iniquitous lips 

Empires of time and ingenious designs 

Loom deathly distilled in the renewed abyss

For you and I tonight 

Yet, unsympathetic 

to the struggles that be 

Your bare neck and shoulders 

Sweet and tender meat 

And young as the earth-star 

illuminating heaven's 

covetous eyes 

An unempathetic gaze 

Fall through the floor 

The motherless whore

Hoarding all the love in the world from me 

Judas

 To allow oneself to suffer for the greater good, even to the ends if damnation 

Ghost Boy

 immortalized inside my memory, 

the touch of human flesh, 

when i wish to watch an image passing through time and space, 

i only conjure one human face, 

not my own, but perhaps, one i've met 

In sleep, or death, i dream of it endlessly, 

a mere flicker of light giving organelles life with its idolatry, duplicities spreading like wildfire where the truth is a hideously aging revelation and the heart is a statue perplexed by its irreversible nature, 

i may venture to pray to the god who doesn't save, but who crushes all souls in his hands into one, like the stars erased by the sun, once here then gone forever. 

And you my little love, like all things powerful above, cast a spell upon my mind, impossible to escape, yet impossible to find, have brought me to my knees again, knowing not why nor where nor when, 

my childish hope, my hollow friend, 

I beseech you before the bitter end 

The insane movements of sac religious lips marking the void upon the walls of my skin, he who has forsaken his children, 

In my dark heart, I have forsaken him 

The Evolutionist

 A death for the greater good 

Your suffering validated by a single word 

Your own

That doesn't suffice 

I'll inflict mine on others 

Until father time strikes 

Like the shadow i see saying you aren't me

The death blow 

To silence madness and peace alike 

Fullness for forgiveness 

And not another thing 

you say or do will change it

You've said enough

You've done enough 

And it's always such, 

though it never was

I Doll

 My eyes fixed upon a star 

A prayer through the formless dark

Before I sleep, turn shapes in hand 

Invisible weight, invisible man 

A wave of light in a galaxy vast 

The memory of things not yet passed 

Stand on stilts of stars, red dwarves 

ooze like blood through muddied floors 

How it all carved out these secret plans

To unravel the truth of glorified lands

My admiration for your cat-like skull 

To slip from my lips, an immaculate doll 

Frogmouth

 Be at peace 

Sweet little thing 

Of morning song 

Of gentle wing 

Be at peace 

Far from your nest

Mangled and torn

In your Sunday best 

Feed the earth 

That drinks these tears 

Let go of your life 

Your hopes and fear

A prayer to the abyss 

From the glowing blue

Though it isn't kind 

It is true 

From without this grave 

to within this tomb 

New life will rise  

New life will bloom 

Sweet little soul

With love so rife

I thank you for 

your precious life
