Serpent

We ride the serpent’s back.

Unaware of its fumes

we die…

 

Fear’s infant

Brings death, death

 

Who was the true

Perpetrator?

A scapegoat,

A scapegoat.

 

These twin fumes

Guides our vengeance;

why must we kill

those who meant us no ill?

 

For all our faults

We run amok

the media’s instigation

guides our thoughts, our nation.

 

Never daring to wake

Never caring to wake

Corruption of Youth

Spring has yet to come.

With the coming gale

our heart begins to fail

under Winter’s tune.

 

The spring blossoms

Lie petrified…

 

Quietly the maggots,

 whose putrid visage,

make the blossoms age.

 

Please! forgive spring

Autumn’s sins.

 

This dreaded pollution

brings forth confusion.

 

Despite our futile efforts

winter remains at large;

 

Wielding my final wind

I bring an end

To this hymn

Avenge me Furies

I summon thee, furies!

Pack up your bug spray,

for there is a fat fly 

that needs to be tamed.

 

Condemn him for killing

Those that are fleeing

Away from his throne

Away from his drones.

 

I summon thee, furies!

bring up your rifles,

for there is a gluttonous evil

that needs to be spade.

 

Torment him for feeding

on his greased up civics;

just to up bring

his own golden links.

 

I summon thee, furies!

Condemn his loftiness

Tysephone, my lady,

I beg thee swiftness…

 

Torture him for his brutality,

for having defiled their purity,

by feeding them

his own wretched insanity.

 

I summon the furies!

Come please with haste!

Be not idle as he wastes

what little remains.

 

Avenge me ,furies!

De ja vu in Dream

Crystalline silver strings,

shine with the awakening.

 

Once again, the frail

hands will rise

Once again “once again”.

 

I follow, trapped,

Beneath this hollow hole .

 

Once again I am guided,

The pit beckons.  

 

Anxiety creeps froth,

but he beacons.

 

Left frozen, in silence

The last messenger sings

 “flee! Live!”

 

Deserting this impending doom

 My own death grips me.

 

Once again voices,

silently scream

“go forth”

 

This cursed memory.

Is the bane of my waking hours…

 

I cannot shake of this uneasiness;

I cannot break free of these shackles.

 

Once again, I flee

from my blood;

the crystalline gaze,

these emerald pears,

His eyes…my eyes.

 

With fury’s flight

he creeps froth with haste .

This deadly game

Starts yet again.

 

Tere vs the speed demon

I stare on, with shame,

At this cursed reflection …

                                    “Why… so much disdain ..?

                                       This is your wretched gaze.”

The life of a human,

this cursed form.

This wretched cycle

spins on forth .

                                    “Shed no tears ..

                                    no need for fears.

                                    Plenty find

                                    the will for casting behind …

            -Such foolish fantasies –

I do not want this,

No more dark conformities!

I’ll swim forth!

I rebuke these

imposed destinies.

                                    “No options remain…

                                    awaken speed demon !

                                    and see your humane

                                    Façade!”

I will become strong!

                                    “Awaken your lost!”

            -How long must this

            perpetual dream

            continue rotting us?

            You are the deception!

            It is I who is true!-

I shall shatter

this mirror !

                                    “We shall reveal the imposter!”

            -the true illusion…

            it is I who is strong!-

                 <crack>

 

Protect the unborn

Protect the unborn,

save us!

How much debate

for the sake

of common hate?

 

What is a life?

What is unborn?

 

How do we decide?

Her life or mine…

 

Save us!

The unborn…

 

Protect the unborn…

so much violence

over trifling malice.

 

Cursed convenience…

Human malice.

 

Save us…

the unborn.

 

“Nemesis let us be,

it was no malice.

 

Silence!

No more words…

Quit stabbing our soul…”

 

-We had no choice!-

 

Burdensome

I want no more                        This weight on my shoulders

These pitiful eyes                    tears my soul asunder

No more lies                           Face up! Cursed denial

***                                          ***

To silence my woes                I sought to make my frenzy eternal

I suppressed …                       This terrible impotence

The desired lack of pity          now allows my rage to hence

****                                        ****

Now roar!                                the furious soul,

My ancient fight                     awakened by his scythe, 

My cursed blood                     Upholds my horror

In innocent hands!                  Why did I lose hold?

 

The hunter

Thump, thump!

 

This cold sensation

follows the curve,

stirring my fascination.

 

Such a pale grimace…

By god! My face.

 

Thump, thump!

 

One step! 2 steps

Frozen stiff; it roars.

 

Thump…thump…thum…p

 

“Move! Refuse thy dharma?!

Bah! So much for the manliness of man!”

 

Thump… Thump…

 

Raise forth by thunder,

clarity restored,

I refuse to suffer

Fate’s cruel, final horror.

 

gasp…gasp <gulp>

 

Thump! THUMP…thump…

Mock trail (or court what ever you prefer…)

Do not judge them,

just condemn them.

 

They are guilty

there is no question .

Just the sentence

is in question.

 

Should we kick them

just for violence?

 

Should we burn them

just for malice?

 

Noooo!!!

 

Do not judge them;

just condemn them.

 

If they are guilty

we don’t question;

if they are here

then it is clear.

 

GUILTY of charge!

 

Should we rape them

just for fun?

 

Should we stone them

And be done?

 

Noooo! HA! Ha!

 

Worldly tyrants come forth;

make thy homage our court.

 

We judge not, but condemn…Condemn!

 

Oh no! Horror! Noooo!

 

Gamble Gaia

Cast the dice, its burning.

Gamble up our soul,

Green Envy, callous moon…

 

Agni, offer us a sacrifice,

To make mother pacify.

 

Gaia, mother, embrace

Us no more

You take our breath away.

 

We want no more

This cursed 5th season.

 

Forgive us, we neglected

We sicken Humbaba.

 

Devolve us, chastise us,

But forgive the rising sun.

 

Insomnia

In this dark nights,

My solitude

Tends to Interlude.

 

1000 times more,

I hear the cry

Of my soul.

 

What can I do

To prove you,

My lord?

 

That I done my must? 

 

Living Rex

Nobody knows best,

But the living Rex.

Empty desires

Whispers, surefire.  

 

Empty faces

Dare to shunder

“A I sane?

Am I the same?

 

This cruel world

Now has claimed

My old disdain.

 

No one know you best,

Except the living Rex

His calming lire

Calms the old ire.

 

 

Wasted

Another day, my youthful vigor

Wasted, wasted,

Another storm surges forth.

 

These empty walls

Grow dim with sorrow;

These empty faces

Reek useless pretenses. 

 

As the rose turns red,

My heart now sheds

My final struggle,  

My last regret.

 

To the Old Gods : Zeabot & Alecto

Sing me a Song

Of war’s begotten son.

Come forth, Ares!

Bring forth thy rages.

 

As Apollo descends

Our hearts turn dead.

 

I am tired

Of having to transpire.

Of having to conspire.

 

Of the devil’s woe

Our greatest foe!

 

Sing me a song,

Alecto, my love.

Come and redeem

This rotten justice

That we long for.

 

Hurry, come forth

I wish to see

Our common foe

Whisper your name.

 

The first, the all,

Zeabot, for whom

The first son

Was offered.

 

Come, nameless God of Lore!

Cast them into the abyss;

At least for Today,

Justice will reign!!

 

Thysephone

For ages, you grown tired,

Your song is now a liar;

You exist not today

You act not today.   

 

In the dark side of the moon,

She wishers her own doom.

 

You look down to notice,

That empty faces hide tears

That echoes my true fears.

 

Night

The thing that I dread the most

Is to see you and speak;

I desire no more,

Just release me from your hymn.

 

I am depleted and tired,

Abandoned by thee, Nemesis,

No more, your righteous Indignation.

 

Filled with horror,

Is the song, which I sing.

I beg for deliverance

From this night child.

 

You know what I seek!

Call forth the storm

Alleviate our woe;

And end this tune.

 

Thy Too

Filled with rage

And agony,

I seek thee.

 

Take the king

From this city.

 

I cannot walk.

My heart grows hard.

I seek your furious song.

 

Filled with empty screams

I whisper hate,

Born from your deeds.

 

Betrayal

Who was the last to stab me?

I feel it hard and strong,

Take my mask

Erase the past

 

Given! Never

Never, not once

Did we foresee

Such lies, such evil

 

I cannot abide

By such a rule

 

Bah! Never, not once

Did we say,

“I give thee…”

Yet… you take, take.

 

This is your last mistake!!

 

Torture

Seek the wind

Beneath our lungs,

Seek beyond

This spring, these thoughts

 

I’ll repay our trust, our name

Now defiled, they race again

 

Virata, what is this torment?

You claim to know my woes?

How could they claim fault

When our breath lies within their vengeful grip?

 

Silent sorrow,

Tainted whip,

Ill repaid, our trust, our sin.

 

Foolish hope lies dormant

Take it back, discard it.

 

I want not your sanctity

Ill repaid was our trust in you grip

For now we sink (gulp)

 

The End

This cold wind

Chills the bones

As I sing,

The soul departs…

 

The phantom of Yesterday   

Mercilessly, crushes my day!

 

Is this my true answer?

My steps take me farther

Day by Day,

The further I haste

The more she wastes.

 

Flee this pursuing fury!

Flee the mourning day!

I can never regain

The light of this day.

 

The Kika has fallen,

My true self awakens.

 

Afraid

The wind carries my screams,

As oblivion surges,

This phantom emerges.

Haunting the corridors

With untold horrors.

 

I search their faces,

I only see empty vases.

Carried in this hymn.

 

Tainted

After being tainted,

The germ spreads

Beyond this façade.

 

As the sand wastes,

Our doom hastens.

 

With this scorn

With this woe

She spreads, she takes.

 

As the malady spreads,

My home becomes my friend,

 

No more heroes,

No more zeroes.

 

What remains is my disdain.

For today, I regain…

The crimson bloom, reborn,

Relieving my old forlorn.

 

The Furies’ Dept

This mistake has us rotten,

Our old face, now forgotten

As the stars fall, oh, so bright!

Our hands tremble with fright.

 

We are malice!

Within the hours,

If you gaze,

Our minds mingle.

This crimson haze

Has now been kindled.

 

Our backs are bent,

Our hearts broken.

 

This malady cannot be taken.

It rots our hearts, our patience.

We have been  forgotten,

Just a pest, a waste, a scum.

We no longer fit your must.

We paid the furies’ dept.

Yet, you seek our neck.

 

The Crimson Flower

Red as the crimson rose.

Red as the coming Mars.

 

These men with rapid furnace

Turns the rose velvet.

 

As it boils

Our fools toil.

In this field,

Making us yield,

To the ax.

 

Red as the coming darkness.

Red as the rising sun.

 

Oh! No, Horror!

This foolish Honor,

Killer of men!

 

Oh! Yes, they come,

It has begun!!

 

The crimson light is surging;

The Valkeries are searching,

 

Red as the first sigh,

Red as the blood sky,

Red as the first cries,

Red as the death’s eyes.

 

End

As the crimson moon surges,

The true hero emerges.

No more sympathetic lies,

No more steely, iron eyes.

The end has just begun.

Comes in like a hound.

Sniffing out our pain.

He only found disdain.
