Pitious dawn how you pulse before me How I feel your terrestrial gravity Pushing & pulling the soul like magnets Polar opposites detract & repel As the gothic architecture of my brooding heart crumbles slowly Over the decades, I fade into my castle of seething doom & gloom An ivory tower I have reinforced by sheer will power; unlimited power seethes The darkened rooms glow by the lunar light, a bright halo leads me to Zion Bathing in the illumination on the old, dull floor My face presses against the cold linoleum The craggy gargoyles lie high atop the belfry tower To beg for the unhealty placement on high My only friends are the pale peal of the funereal bells tolling Darkness grows within these four walls Pinned down by the writer's pen of destiny , I succumb to writer's block Fate climbs into my slumber chamber Creaking the base, bringing me closer to horror that awaits Parasite how you bleed me so Stolen blood & a sharp sting in response Across the pond I see my paradigm of truth blossoming Nature awakes at a bewitching hour The synthesis of my own misgivings Swollen & languid my tongue dances Awaiting the summoning of pure pain Even Frankenstein would crave the experience of these loving words Backbone is numb, spinal cord wraps around itself creating tension Falling back into homemade isolation Flaying skin burns by the hinges of my only passive words A crushing delirium overtakes my morbid outlook on life Death assails my ravaged spirit
