keep listening...

Keep listening to the soft languid flames
screaming aloud in a whisper
take off your clothes and put on your shoes
and proceed, to the judgement hall
they will tell you the rest.

Desperate knights are all ready
out with their swords and shields
the priests busy with their invocations
hexing the souls
calling for peace.

Bloodshed.

Look there's a baby coming out of her
somebody help her cut herself
she's sweating blood

"its okay...
-your unintended child shall live.."
borne and live.

Here...its sharp
go on..
it wont hurt, i promise
poke it in your sweet flesh
deep round cells await a miracle
fear ephemeral stillness
or freeze forever.

i'll get you to another world
come on, grab my hand
i'll take you there.
boredom. savage silences. white shadows.
assassination of the doomed.
its a newer improved heaven.

Arrival was a dream
grasslands. phoenix. cupids. stupids.
wait here...
i'll be back in 2 moments...
junkies trailing.
rags begging.
whore craving.
-can we spend a night together?
in that hut or by that lake.

Anxious villagers
sending insects as messengers
creeping out of the unstoppable rain
lets go...time to leave
-i don't like farewell...
"everything is ephemeral."

Jailed blood speaks
in a monotonic, breaking voice
rotten to the core
-do you need anything?
"i missed my bus."

Mourners had gathered
around the naked ground,
with a coffin laid right in the center
no activity allowed, in the radius
duke's offspring's cot death
first hour of the wake
found dead
in the moving cradle.
