Descent

Procreation of the damned We rely solemnly on how The antidote No cure for the sane The answer lies Nowhere in between Anaesthetize Sedate our children's bowels Hovering towers Ripping the sky Open Drenched in human flesh Old triangles Spawning new Wealth due to sorrow Limb by limb We climb the dead Wrestling on to raise our pride Blindfolded In constant search for more Always kiss the flesh of thorns Never face defeat The antidote No cure for the sane The answer lays Nowhere in between Lazarus Breathe once more Retrieve an infant To rule them all Cast aside All beauty adorned in pride Tend the seed once kept alive And so we all Relive our past To see it all The way our world Went by Stepping down From His throne of glittering stars The prince of ashes Embraced by the sun

Parting ways Lives slipping through Aeons to share Still untamed Ye towers of doom Come tear down the gates Enforce the mirage Escape Inhale the odor Incense of defeat Regain, envision Maintain the elite Wrought in ashes Tied in chains We kiss the veil of Acid queens No escape from the tide The boundaries are set Different points of view Same regrets The cult of moment Oppressive Collective deception Oedipus confined disease Or could devils origins contribute to defeat? Our collective insight Perception of time Rejected as treason Dismissed as why How we were great Fallen beneath the cracks Our journey unfolds To crown the clear blue sky

I kiss the tourniquet Gently maiming my body Piece by piece Embracing a lie By sacrificial bleeding To endure the night Beyond the cold forever I bury my dreams of you Close within yet still so far away Is this the great affection The golden path of old That leads us all in dismay? Desert shores of human merit Come quench my thirst Oceans left to conquer Depths to be fought Brick by brick We carry the load Raising our beacon To eclipse the sun By the black holes in your eyes Beyond all substitutes Below all walls of pride Beneath the outmost contempt I bury my heart for you

We were faint with hunger and maddened by despair We held our dying children and felt their little bodies tremble as their soul went out and left only a dead weight in our hands They were not very heavy but we were faint and the dead weighed us down There was no hope on earth God seemed to have forgotten Some one had been talking of the Son of God and said He had come The people did not know They did not care They snatched at hope They screamed like crazy people to Him for mercy and caught at the promise they heard He had made ~ Chief Red Cloud Oglala Lakota

Complex witness Worlds divided Tension wrought in agony Fingers bleeding, rest unholy Bold eruption Swept in awe Mighty letters Dance upon our heavens Carve your ways through unwilling flesh And so it ends To wrestle emotions To temper the gods No words left unspoken Will match the odds Kicking the goads The conquest eternal Fixing the gods a goddess infernal Fate like clay Soft in your hands Molding kiss of iron rods Empty vessel Loins of God Who can hear the wolves approaching Gathering the beast inside Once again to fight and to claim The blood of difference to sustain Memory force the pale unknowing Tears to bleed from swollen wounds Bittersweet the night of loving Ravaged womb conceives by mace Mighty letters Dance upon our heavens Carve your ways through unwilling flesh The truth and the outcome Divergent decay Selective projectives For reasons unwronged Behind the demon lights we all must bear our burdens All take the blame All make amends And so it ends

Desert Sons and daughters Embrace a worn out future Womb Of compromise Suffering the needs for progress Desolate Wastelands Dry sand and bleeding cultures Procreate the walls of youth Scattered shells Burning surface Confining trust Somewhere in between us Trembling Starving beggar hands Out of reach The touch of cloth Revolving hatred Wrestles thirst and demigods In hells of scarlet wonders Driving a wedge Further into our being Parting our sea of reeds Severing our tongue Souls will prevail Battering your goads of effort Towards a broad horizon We leave this earth Unmourned But weep you hardened voice of never Our fields will burn in shades of your gloom Shipwrecked by the shores of knowledge Your sisters' blood Cries out from the ground Hush and weep You hardened voice of never Fields burn in the shade of your gloom Silenced we are by the shores of our knowledge The self has failed the test
