Now that I have touched the land Worn but valiant at last Lay my umbra at the gate It can't follow anyway
Then veer off their path of lies Hide in the cloak of night For to bear the guise of none Restful equilibrium
I will remember everything Faded yet strong enough to read All these letters of my life Tell-tale marks of insight
The most early visions Opaque renditions of religion Washed over my nescience The benediction - I still taste the incense
Decretum We were ones to be loved But on what conditions
Piety Having me trusting in none But those who owned me
City walls Shielded all from the storms That would never reach us
Enemies Whom to kill When there is only us and ideas
They claw with sullied hands On false proving grounds Shun the lesser man
Who will partake with them In mock diligence Through the trodden plains
Arrogance vile Corrupted means of righteous life Mannequins cry For submission - for my heart to die
Wretched at spring Failed beginning When will it cause Final downfall
Autumnal spree Time to be free If only for Three lunations
Coveting grey Romantic frills for drunken preys Hounded, betrayed By a mad god and their urge to sway
Owe no credo Safe from ethos Non serviam I need no one
Draw the contours Of my telos Cross the welkin's Silver linings
On amber winds soar my fancy and dreams Known yet elusive their sheen Graven in stone is decision and fear Treating the crown of the king
Past draperies of discovery Beauty and reason entwine Poised as I halt at the questioning What in my being am I
How to proceed from designed certainty How to reveal what is wrong God is anathema to the one who sees I choose to behold alone
Learning the parsimony of spirit Burning to ashes the greed I nursed Turning all honesty left towards me Journeying closer to my birth
I fled decades ago For the barren snow To weather, to know
Pain - no foe for a friend No terse argument A mere place to end
Now and forevermore My tears will be salt To the earth they hoard
See it crawl, wither Serpents all slither then Eating on them
Nemesis It is me, waiting here Ever near
Heaven scorns them Venal, flawed saints I am the thorn to their pride
And they scream Kick and plead, bleeding For signs of their god
Poison reigns Good is feigned, scripted Who did deceive who
Purpose gone Virtue known by no one Hell is done
An era falls Chimera principles Antediluvian codes
Fierce winter, black horizons Frost knifing through the violence Unsparing sinner riddance Here among faithful minions
Mortal messenger of dire turmoil Demonstrating with ease how they coil Once divided as masters and servants Then united in death's own insurgence
Learning the parsimony of spirit Burning to ashes the greed I nursed Turning all honesty left towards me I am so near, I can feel worth
Steadfast is the candle Through the arctic fields
Glowing ever brighter Blanketing me tighter With each tread I leave
Definition finer As the flame climbs higher With each mist I breach
Medusa Greets me Deep within the shrine Of a wearied mind
Medusa Frees me From the measureless Prison of the flesh
The most early visions Opaque renditions of religion Washed over my nescience The benediction - I still taste the incense
Decretum We were ones to be loved But on what conditions
Piety Having me trusting in none But those who owned me
City walls Shielded all from the storms That would never reach us
