the stars trickle in anticipation their glow flickering behind wisps of passing clouds a silence perceived solely by the sky's septum unfolds into an echo both solitary and surmount the heaven's tantrum results in bursts falling like dagger victim to gravity's pull they are leaving! they are leaving! faces appear, gazing into a tireless void surrounded by light - engulfed by black bodies rolling on grass lay still for moments allowing themselves a sinful thing; to sink deep into the ground

here it comes the end is nigh a crooning crow patrols the sky the lake reflects a crescent moon as god's old land lay now in ruin and were the world lay now ahead oh sleeping distance where to tread where to run or where to hide as life distorted creeps through behind battered thought upon cleansed sin we gaze in awe her benevolence eternal rise pink and grey oh conflicting beauty lead us astray wanderlust turn thought to dust bleeding greed turn will to must charging future twist my words feed on bone as preyless birds a ****** of crows now they coo our withering souls long overdue the glistened waters reflect dark clouds he comes to reap we must avow

limbo
White man, white man, come and go Through foreign land of indigo Scatter bullets, purge grass plains Push away the harvest rains Tattered robes embrace patch grass Thumping way for progress pass To a timeless change now they succumb; A peaceful mind now turning numb

I.R. Shun
Guardian angel, Soaring through black skies, Remove me from temptation, Cast by fiery devil-eyes. Watcher of mortality; Soft nature known to all, Lay your hands upon me, Lift me over mountain's fall. For when darkness enters mind, I stray upon endless shores of gray. No wings to pick me up and, No winds to cast reaching seas away. Guardian Angel, Gliding above black clouds, Rest me as caterpillar in cocoon, Exposing demons within shrouds. Watcher of mortality; Reach further than before. Seek me through confusion, And in quiet seek me more. For when darkness enters mind, Reason strays beyond boundaries of men. No sense in the domain of devlish beast, Illusion casting it's spell again and again.

Guardian Angel
Oh Lucid girl, in darkness bound These mirrored walls have blinding sights; Not illusion, not deceit, these soul-shattering steps Have only such purpose as to blacken these nights. Should thunder strike, must you swirl into it's trance. 'd have you climb to the heav'ns, past gates of God's pass Not strung like a puppet, curved as a hurricanes dance; Then shovel my grave out your life, once and last... Oh Lucid girl, lifeless misery-sunk You were led into darkness by the pied piper's song. Seduced by the tangent whistling shadows Their trickery has tortured and left you hung. Oh Lucid girl, no light set down on you; Yet upon my sight your beauty shone through.

Lucid Girl
There's nothing better than a man full of lies A man full of debt with his mind 'tween his thighs As long as he's here all your money will pass His heart never fails yet he speaks from his *** Now we're going down to a pub in the city A corporate beer for a day that's been ****** Truth reveals, it's our time to sound Dig a hole full of shame, Stick your head underground He walks around like he owns the **** place Mark my sweet words, we'll be marking your face Black suit, black tie, just a penny a lie He fills us with debt, money captures his eye A drunk! A drunk! We all fancy truth. Let's all get him drunk and just end this dispute. Fill him with beer, find the goldmine alas; The beer keeps on flowing till truth pours out his ***

Drunken Politician
The tip of a blade Sharp as the mind which forged it Has pierced morality Blunted steel Swift and light Has purged grounds of once dancing man Gentle winds pushing tides Wreckage after wreckage The seas left in the hands of land-walkers Omnipotence cast aside The madness in eros retreats Requiescat in pace Mountains folding Now wait for the blackened sky Descending The peace has been stolen No balance remain Longing a rising sun Sit in moonlight, Pray Breath by breath A Samurai's sword The quickened in body and soul Casts away a dying wind

Balance
They say you are immune to sin Convinced it shadows through your skin Yet all the while you sit in past alone. They reel you in, say you're a catch While behind you lies another batch And all around they build a cage of stone The lightning strikes, no thunder sounds You take one step, you're out of bounds Now they sever all your flesh from bone. They take it all, your mind and soul Lock you in a furnace filled with coal Still willingly you appear to build their throne You realize you're no more God's son They've molded you into a walking gun Made to pillar all that seems as gold. They changed reflection in your mirror With a weary look and a wide blank stare; Forever you are clay for them to mold

Scattering Illusions
Slaves and women told how cities were forged; Through contest of blood; battered shield, shattered sword. The edge of a blade would spark the acid in rain, The lash of a whip clenched man's riddance of pain.

Tears of Blood
Silenced stories of restless scythe, They broke the swarms, drove through the night. Contagious wound, shrapnel and bite; Friend now foe, come morning light. Blood-stained walls of every height, Repressing zounds of res extensa wight. Bar up the exits, show no light; They hide in shadow, starve themselves at night. Hell's devilish approach, we face God's wrath; An alliance we form, an escape we path. Betrayal a necessity, fight for our own. A dozen to ten, ten cuts me alone. Tread lightly, tread lightly, Shelter in fear. No God and no hope, There's no one left here. They ambush me now, ten thousand to one, I've found a companion, just me and my gun.
