My lingering fire has failed to consider the ruin. It has raged an Hour past all Hope... As Providence evaporates - Long before the Landscape is visible to Angels descending. My annihilation is complete and yet - I cannot be Undone ! I Persist in Flames, my Vacuum is Defied ! And what Sorrow comes to understand Can only be described as The Soul. However vanquished - I am not Consumed... Merely swallowed whole. Impervious to the Luxury of Death. Though my Inferno has no Talisman. Instead A Terrible Will is at Work - Renaming Constellations To Suit my Astronomy Is All.

A Terrible Will
My lingering fire has failed to consider the ruin. It has raged an Hour past all Hope... As Providence evaporates - Long before the Landscape is visible to Angels descending. My annihilation is complete and yet - I cannot be Undone ! I Persist in Flames, my Vacuum is Defied ! And what Sorrow comes to understand Can only be described as The Soul. However vanquished - I am not Consumed... Merely swallowed whole. Impervious to the Luxury of Death. Though my Inferno has no Talisman. Instead A Terrible Will is at Work - Renaming Constellations To Suit my Astronomy Is All.
