I shall reign alone with dread over you

Can we light up a black and bogie sky? Can we tear through this darkness Without sun, without morning? But our souls are as tombs That from eternity we wander, And endless ages have they wandered by, Yet still without pity or mercy we fight, So mighty in death, our delight And when the livid morning falls, You will find alone the empty walls, And till the evening, cold it will be. As others with their lies, Upon your life and youthfulness, I'll reign alone with dread over you. Where snails abound in a soft soil, I will dig for myself a fathomless grave, Where at leisure my bones I can coil, And rest underground like the worm does. Rather than tears from the world to implore, I would ask of the crows with their vampire bills To devour every bit of my carcass impure. To Her, with pride we chant an echoing Hymn, For nothing can touch the sweetness of her sway; Her flesh ethereal as the seraphim, Her eyes with robe of light our souls array. Mystic metamorphosis All my senses blend in one Her voice an intoxicating perfume is, Her breath makes music Her, Death.

Like a god, I will intoxicate With incense and myrrh, Genuflections and wine, To know if I can take An admiring heart And usurp with laughter The divine rights. But once I grow tired Of these unholy farces I will drop my fragile and strong hand Over their shoulders, And my nails, as claws Will find their way into their hearts. I will pull the beating heart Out of their red chest And feed it to the dogs. But they will gaze up to the sky And thank the gods For giving them suffering To purify their impurity. But these exclamations, this ecstasy These laments and curses Are an echo repeated by thousand voices And are as divine opium for the mortal heart. And this is the only testimony We can give of our humanity, This rolling lament That dies by the edge of your eternity.

Tirade 04:47
My face is stone; my soul is sickened As I look upon the pulling, Smelly visage of humanity. I hate everything that bears their fetid breath. Every fibre, every nerve of my being Is shaken in disgust. Wherever I am, I’m besieged By their presence As they come to lick the surface of my feet. There’s nothing I hate as much as the contortions of those great architects of protests, those gracious donors of frivolous hugs, those obsequious talkers of useless words, who attack everyone with their kindness and treat the same way a man of merit and a fool. My eyes are blinded by disgust, But the city can only offer me bile-stirring performances tireless proof of humanity’s foolishness. through his mask is the traitor fully revealed, he is known for what he is everywhere, his candid eyes and his sweet voice only deceive those who do not belong here. As ravens hungry for slaughter the foolish men gather around the corpses of those who tried to purge the vices of the time.
