Shel masa Fun de Ma (Manifest of the spirits) Walk without limbs... Walk through my soul...

Wearing robes of solemnity My senses stand erect This moment I am solitary As you watch me, eyeless Observe a brutal face I need silence I need to be alone Look at me My bony fingers Wrapped in rags I am pursued And love is withered My eyes will see if my spirit lives And love is withered The wind shouts its commands The earth has stopped my ears I dare not raise my hand To hold the stones around my throat I've heard of your beauty And would sacrifice my days These midnight wanderings And vain laments And love is withered Pour upon me A sympathetic glance My splendor has gone You will find me facedown Let those days pass In sorrowful procession Among leafless groves May a leaf unfold I cry out with rage To be remembered with pity Let the leaves unfold Where dead leaves have rotted Ask me what I suffer Years of fruitless clinging To enfeebled arms That wave of benevolent salute I've heard of your beauty Pursue me, beckon me Raise your hand To cast the stones from my throat In the earth's dark entrails My glazed eyes close forever My eyes will see if my spirit lives

Under a serene sky, Earth covers your gentle form In verdant fields Soul is reft of body. To my head, I raise a wreath of white flowers and cry "Unhappiness." My mournful valediction I drink deep into your soul... Killed with hate, You died with love... The cry of my heart, the cry of my soul Dreamless sleeper, your face the grave will change, your blood poured like your saviours I drink the midnight hymn.

Jesus lies dying in my bed Companions since birth In this stagnant dingy haunt He has never really lived. Last night I beat him, As he would not leave My insane eyes stare at him, As his wilted body bleeds. Frequently I rape him, As I know nothing else He curls up like a fetus, And paints his face with sadness. Now a fragment Of remorse is etched I bandage his wounds I kiss the face of Jesus Christ But he is dead. What can I do? You've forsaken me You called yourself messiah, And expected me to follow And now he lays dead, And your prophecies with him I will bury him not, As insult to your face. As I stare at his corpse, One detail disturbs me His cold, stark finger, Points where I have not been. From my house, The cage of rotten wood I stumble forth, To lay beneath the bush Withered bones groan, I cultivate As the soil and I grow closer. The sun recieves an empty gaze It mourns, It knows my life is gone No more to offer But my flesh to this soil And a single tear Marks my final prayer. The rosebud sits In the palm of your hand As I end, this flower blossoms.

A child was born in silence And winter rose to clothe itself With a voice of one who weeps I curse this memory You held the hand of hope With glory's wreath and deceiver's promise The vows your lips have sworn Tomorrow wear decay Stifled sobs Bow to cold laughter The breeze is speechless as the dust drinks the dew A child-like hope With fear betrothed Never ceases to kiss my feet This is my final lamenting kiss I've spun my last thread My dreams are broke Lonely and bare My jewels are tarnished The wailings of the heart Are with the unborn Dreams of poetry It is cold within My knotted hand strikes A tuneless cord The noise of tongues In my darkened labyrinth Prophesies are whispered To a face careworn Why have I forsaken you? The dove so long imprisoned Sour remembrance Of a day never born My retreating steps Are clothed in shadows Laden in black A man foresworn Heaven wept for the wounds that bled Tears more bitter than blood Vex my soul I am thrown on your mercies Yet my heart is still hardened Weep for me, my god Weep for me Sooth my grief Through my artless prayers My tears burden your aching soul I held hope's hand But let her forsake me May I be faithful to hold onto yours This is my final lamenting kiss This is my final lamenting kiss I've spun my last thread My dreams are broke Lonely and bare My jewels are tarnished The wailings of the heart Are with the unborn To my god of darkness My sombre romantic

My God, weep for me

I shivered in the warmth of their god (whispers of dead sisters). Yet this mansion is haunted by romance, his servants heal my scars Anointing me with oil. I am naked and silk on this eve, His body will cradle his brides' in frailty as I await his kiss, mortality ebbs from me. The pendulem swings Twelve times it rings On this night I sleep with the emperor.

As tears again bedew my cheek To your knees I cling Oh merciful one Show me your glory. Was I not bruised? Have you not healed? They dance to silence But your song I hear. Holy Lord, fathomless God Tears Flow, But the water is sweet Holy Lord, fathomless God I fall as one dead, With quivering lips. Blesed be, Priest and friend All heavens bow, In (mute) admiration Fathomless depth, Measureless Height Great is your holiness.
