Said the Looking Glass...
listless clouds clash remorsefully bright in contrast to the darkness of the sky behind them poised to invade when the darkness has won, evil stars strike up in flames overtaking our dreams through which we witness furrows creep and widen across the solid earth ingesting clusters of ****** souls, their cadaverous shades perfumed by the misery of hell and undermining tall cathedrals which plunge with torrents of masonry into the abyss, their unfastened bells clamoring out of sync and out of key through the acrid dusts of hell trudge trolls who, bored and longing for meaning, pilfer the cathedrals' rugged remnants lying in slanted piles we come to realize we are the ministers of dead nations for which any hope of renewal has finally been extinguished, masterfully deceived and depleted by an anarchic emperor who caresses the strings of a dismelodious lyre his lyre invites the clouds to return, this time energized and organized into desolate vortices that twist without purpose, where even infinity dies, the same multitudes of nothingness in which we're finally overtaken as befoulment is woven between us and we are choked into sleep, vainly we ask, "why?"

Vainly We Ask
ah, enslave without compassion bound ancestors you must impale go seek and show no mercy let those who escape carry the tale all the sufferers bearing witness to their ministers spilling their blood staggered screeches from bleak recesses regicide plotters bend to the dust with unmitigated conquest and ********** trample them under your tyranny slimy enshrinement brings into question what's divinely lamented for scatter populations with ruthlessness let them choose sycophancy or sword reappoint difficult commanders for instigation unbroken awaits kept in frenzy, they whisper confusion never quite sure of their fate with unmitigated conquest and ********** trample them under your tyranny let the cowardly unlock the gates for you to heroically claim what's inside crowds you abhor kneeling in wonder all the world is your ****** bride punctuate the roads with tollgates ***** monuments to broadcast your name all your banquet's guests are your enemies entertain them with one another's shame with unmitigated conquest and ********** trample them under your tyranny with unmitigated conquest and ********** trample them under your tyranny under your tyranny

Unmitigated Conquest and **********
color has fled the sky blinded by the sharp, white sun we drift until we land among chalky ridges devoid of leaf or claw voices of reassurance keep calling after us yet here we have little but ourselves to save us stale water, stale air, dry bread, what little there is if we're lucky, we'll return but for now, we revel in the miracle that we are here and look back upon our sullied asylum stirring with cacophonic frenzy distant, isolated and inaudible
