once you're weaved into the net
struggeling like a desperate fly
at the mercy of a starving spider
cutting the silk
is all that's left to do

the paranoid King the adamant Rook
the soulless tyrant icon of bloodshed
an empire build on build on the ivory
fright and despair fragments of death
the vacant Knight
servant of demise
the bearer of fate
bound to the night
the virulent Queen the twisted Bishop
daughter of doom preacher of battle
the graceful terror true worshipper of
clad in gilt debris the god of carnage

it is friday night
a warm breeze
pets the trees
today
they did a good job
red and yellow
neons illuminate
the silken blood
lovingly woven
into the asphalt
long story short
I just fought God
in a Denny's
parking lot

cold fingers on notched wrists
seeking the lethargic pulse
the air full of heavy smoke
smothered by the ashes
watch our burned-out world
drowning in the faded flames
no words left to say
shivers down the twisted spine
a definite embrace

have you ever seen someone
unbothered by the rain?
their head held high
not afraid of the thunder,
not scared of the sky
as streets are devoured
and the end meets the eye
ignorant of the storms
and the fires down low
someone, unbroken
unwilling to bow
do you dare to wonder:
what they must have done
what they must have seen
because no innocent man
is unbothered by the rain
