In utter horror encasing scalding fear
the guilt of fears in fears of guilt
red rags to incandescent transparencies
unearthing a rarity never in frame
in gleaming lights a paragon sustains
unblemished minus chains scars on throat
resplendent without cuffs or ankles stigmata
in glow no whip lacerations on brown back

worse still

the head sits straight on shoulders broad
a mind secured in luminous brilliance unfettered
the solemn wisdom kindled in balance inspired
the unsubjugated soul of the worthy seeker
in chambers of horrors imperial ghouls are grieved
is it not ordained none of these avoid the thumb
in ******* of minds and spirits we cheat sway
they to walk beneath behind never to shine or lead

the bitterness hails

the emperor's journey of Damnation digs wrath
in caves  gutters and under stones soulless emerges
fervoured in destruction shamed en-massed angst's
the vultures of doomsday and asinine naysayers feast
overcome by terror and fear wrought in inferior charms
chiseled in the salts of chalks they dread the rising tide
when the granite stands to sit at the table of rulers
the unthinkable truth and begotten hero of black nurture
