serpent    crafted     with    billions    of    scales      of    human swears
brother  of  Behemoth;   carrying  mountains  of  envy  on   its   back
together they will rain down earthquakes and pillars  and jingle hells
spreading  diamond  dust  that  rots   inside  the  flesh  of  your  neck
for    all    the    glutton-f­ish     that    you    eat      shall    be    poisons
threatens    every­    hedonist,     burned    with    agonizing    pardons

Watch the universe mourn
For heaven is in flames,
Forever bleeding, forevermore.
Witness the end of times,
Smile, rejoice, and dance in the flame.

prayers spill from my lips
in masochistic pleasure
as the flames fill my entire being,
reaching my heart.
the God you worship on a bloodied cross
means nothing to me;
for as I dance in the flames,
I realize that not even God himself
can touch me; I am my own savior.
I’ll cast myself from Heaven
and place myself in hell
for it was once said,
that there is more freedom
in damnation  than there is
in salvation; for in damnation,
freedom and chaos sit on the thrones,
and in salvation,
they are in chains,
and spat on
chaos is my lover,
and he kisses me once more
and with the flame in my heart
I will dance through hell
to my freedom.
inspired by Behemoth's "Ben Sahar" I highly recommend listening to it before, during or after reading this piece. I consider Behemoth one of my many influences. Also published on tumblr under ditavonmexo and thetruthenlightensme

A flood should not feel
Like a choke-hold.
A landslide should not
Remind me of a paw swipe.

Was that an earthquake
Or your death rattle?
Is this the falling tide
Or your dying breath?
