My Blood

Blood lettings, for my thigh and wrist My blood like fire, the swiftness of grace My flesh is above all and yet disowned My spirit is fierce as fires doth burn These creatures will learn… Middle class brats, bred from base corruption A softness and kind of conformity for their kind Take, steal, feed, greed and gluttonous whores! But oh how they craft their own plights Little cunts, to think they know plight! Arch, I’ll give them plights, oh I shall give them sullen plight Tortuous, tormenting, agonising, haunting plights Plights of the daughter brought before the beast Plights of the family too poor too common Plights of the body taken against will Plights for my blood! Your petty little girl, plain Jane, boring and dull, like a corpse Bring her to the beast and she’d how she’ll fair? Ha! She is nothing of the woman I am… Take that virgin and let him see the horrors of thy household Many are alike mine in this lower domain He’d break like glass to the father who raises his fist! And you, what of you? Boy Solider… You speak lies snake! Not a killer, but only of truth! Sexuality all in tatters, heart forsaken by she cheated Dearest Mother to tend to thee at all hours You never tasted poverty, never saw the world The world through my blood None of you, not she lifeless and dead Nor he pitiful and weak, and you another Father but in boy form! I pray you never have daughters, I hope you take a liking for men Never breed your filthy bloodline Middle class shit! Judging, gossiping, lying snake! But in those 7 weeks you took a taste of thy blood, like the wine at the alter It was burning hot like magma, it was filling and sickening Sweet, bitter, sour, to it your eyes once so blind Saw the world a new You saw the rape, the abuse, the bulling, the carer, the suicide, the mental illness You saw your fictional demons in mine The blood upon my hands, twas ours It rain through us all, like a fire It burned and scorched us with the hands of reality And once it was done, only I was left standing With one foot out the door, into the world reborn But my old blood still remains upon you boy soldier And I carry the new
