Our Father, who art in heaven Mother Earth, who art in Hell. Burnt to ash, ready Armageddon Watch the sky where angels fell Zipper-mouths pulled tight as the Cross passes the way Carnal masks shimmer light As sludge engulfs the day. Vicious, vicarious crows of blackened ember Cawing and moaning; devilishly romantic The touch of fingertips on lips I remember Left her womanhood wet and frantic. Unchained desires that surely are satanic. Those hours in confessional amongst lying sycophants Console weeping eyes and tarnished souls Elected “Saints” stand tall with hypocritical blather Condemning children with eyes like burning coals “But virgins taste sweeter,” as the angels say With sins like spices which season raw meat But innocence-takers hide beneath crimson beds Sitting atop thrones as stewards to God’s seat Will those that fall, eventually rise? All creatures tempted by tangible discord Would we disobey the Grand one’s design, If we follow the path that derives from the Lord? Samaritans run extinct in the iron fire roads And jukebox ****** priests play The Doors Demon-eye coffee, dark like oily foes I sip and read about the murders in the Moors Devil executions fuel the jungles outside Angels Abandoning service to kids like me Fixers and hitters of the skid south side Shouts from the shadows, “Hey, Nothing to see!” Violent red dresses accompanying long limb girls Spreading legs for daddy and **** daddy do’s Magic hallucinogens showing circles and swirls In faces under hoods and sky-crying moods

Saints, Virgins, and Angels
Our Father, who art in heaven Mother Earth, who art in Hell. Burnt to ash, ready Armageddon Watch the sky where angels fell Zipper-mouths pulled tight as the Cross passes the way Carnal masks shimmer light As sludge engulfs the day. Vicious, vicarious crows of blackened ember Cawing and moaning; devilishly romantic The touch of fingertips on lips I remember Left her womanhood wet and frantic. Unchained desires that surely are satanic. Those hours in confessional amongst lying sycophants Console weeping eyes and tarnished souls Elected “Saints” stand tall with hypocritical blather Condemning children with eyes like burning coals “But virgins taste sweeter,” as the angels say With sins like spices which season raw meat But innocence-takers hide beneath crimson beds Sitting atop thrones as stewards to God’s seat Will those that fall, eventually rise? All creatures tempted by tangible discord Would we disobey the Grand one’s design, If we follow the path that derives from the Lord? Samaritans run extinct in the iron fire roads And jukebox ****** priests play The Doors Demon-eye coffee, dark like oily foes I sip and read about the murders in the Moors Devil executions fuel the jungles outside Angels Abandoning service to kids like me Fixers and hitters of the skid south side Shouts from the shadows, “Hey, Nothing to see!” Violent red dresses accompanying long limb girls Spreading legs for daddy and **** daddy do’s Magic hallucinogens showing circles and swirls In faces under hoods and sky-crying moods
