Death is all around us. It is as natural as life. Without death, life has no meaning. There is no purpose to the infinite. Death, is not final. Death is a consciousness. Death is forever. Life is fleeting, but death drapes all eventually. / / It's like a dream. I want to dream.
When I stood behind her In that mirror in her room, We made a handsome coupling, Just to us, or one, or two. I loved her quiet beauty And how she held herself. I loved how she was whole, And how she walked With an unsure ease. I miss her.

Oh wind, You are a fickle thing, You bring tidings of a chill That can be resolution, absolution Or anything in between. Oh wind, You are a gracious host, Whose cruelty is unmatched In your gift of mirth and hope. Your wildest gusts are mild To the coldest misanthrope.

Providence is coming, and it comes fast. A black sheet of rage, an edifice of wrath, As your tolerance reveals it's foulness last, and your acceptance will becoming your death. Your subversion of nature, your neglect of the past, has led you from the righteous path.

The fasces in my heart calls for those, who would poison the earth beneath me, who would sully our blood and the blood , that God himself did give who would call off the hunt, that my father and fathers before me partook, who would make that grand wolf a sheep, who would try and satiate what we know is true, who would try to commit nature's crime, who would make things inequal, equal. To those who have been called, we come for you.

Oh? But what wandering eye? You curse me so still? I have given you my dignity, my chastity, my love and my hate. Why must you demand? These shackles you hold around my feet, They are frigid, fickle... Frugal. Surely I am not to blame! Surely, surely! Oh, but wandering eye, You have outlasted all, you have tainted all in your cruel excitement. You are my well-lived enemy Oh, but so fair, oh but so tall, and oh, How you vitiate my love and loves! Oh, how you have bound many before you! What flickering excitement you bring, and what black ruin you warrant.

In the spirit of Byron Himself
We face death as we know, Written in facets of stone under our feet, we have built or own demise , the weight of ourselves holding us to that blue undertow, as we sink into our black euthanasia.

In that synagogue That was my home, I buried myself Like pieces of Rome Forgotten by many But mostly myself, They made me Put my heart on a shelf When they strip you of yourself, And tear you down, For the sake of "growth" And the sacred ground To expand their nation or self-hating Fools And continue their selfish dialogue Of riches and jewels
