This Sheltering Night
Opalescent steel grey eyes reveal to me the amber encased insect's sleep My love she's sated in throes of r.e.m. sleep I lean to the window and peer through the blinds to the crooked tree while its gnarled roots corkscrew through the sidewalk in a sentient effort to take flight. Malnourished on sewage,maladapted to the sickly pall of the street lamp's jaundiced eye. I am beside you this sheltering night as your fingers weave through mine. Teeth are clenching right. Forcing back nystagmic flutters. Sleep's enticing ties and tethers. Here is where it all comes to end. Shall we pretend we are not human closing chapter in the years of the full moon. Downtown they're dragging in the river where the waters wind and wend about the factories. This is the place where all dreams come to end. Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes: open them up. This is a sacrifice. Open your eyes, open your eyes: open them up. Rise: rise up and murder love. This is the place where all dreams come to end. This is a sacrifice. Sacrifice: rise up and murder love.

Heed warning. Take leave of this place. Force the break. You've made it this way. Suffer this you've earned a spring-loaded shadow hovering over your shoulder. Come crashing through the door. Measure despair in tears. Gather yourself off the floor. Suffer this you've earned it. Pretty on the outside I know what you have become broken from inside I know what you have become. Mottled in bruises and scrapes. Bed of nails where you lay pretty on the outside. I hope that serves you well. Mother Echidna lays with animals who rip her flesh and break her bones.

Father pestilence rasps in cicada speech His countenance crowned in a halo of flies Multifaceted gaze transfixed on the hourglass Tactile sensory perception in crepitant hands Reveals flaws in parchment derma A regalia of weeping sores In this place where the air is stagnant with the weight of disinfectant and decay An unknown geography to place his head to the ground Commune with all creatures damned and divine Teeth rattling tremors emanate from approaching footsteps Time has always been the enemy I wish to slip this skin for rebirth The air here, the air here is stagnant With the weight of disinfectant and decay An unknown geography to place his head to the ground Commune with all creatures damned and divine Fingers to the concrete divining Time has always been the enemy It has always been the enemy Presently twisted into grotesquerie I wish to slip this skin for rebirth Time has always been the enemy Time has always been the enemy It's unparalleled ravaging Sleep bereft of dreams These pleasures denied drives me to distraction Reality bends in idle hands Slip this skin, slip this skin For rebirth Time has always been the enemy

Craving collapse again. Where you end I begin. The blood is on the wall. Save yourself don't make a sound. Craving collapse again. Crawling craven: craving collapse again. Rust washed skies embittered and enraged. Sweltering heat just out of reach on the boundaries. Unmistaken the keen wail of machinery craving collapse again. This present desecration arms behind the back. Hands cinched together tight with plastic straps. Fingers discolouring one among vermin. Craving collapse again. Where you end I begin, One among swine one among vermin. Where you end I begin. Craving collapse again. Where you end I begin.

Abstract still life rendered in dyskinetic gestures. It was beneath a cerulean sky split by the midday sun. Face down scraping macadam broken glass glistening limits vision to kaleidoscopic prismatic shifting. It's only the end of the world again. Has it come to this: by your own hands betrayed. Concatenate: retrace the tortuous path to realize what has begun. Set into motion spiralling out of control. Unrelinquishing hostilities as if ingrained in helix code. Third from the sun and burning. What you've heard in the whisper stream. Fail-safe enabled contingency. Sleeper cells awakening. Erupting from ocean floors gathering storms across all shores. Ministering outbreaks: maladies pandemics to wipe the slate clean. From creation of time mankind searched the skies for answers. Denied truths inside organized religions to serve masters. You're born alone you die alone. Earth awake: shake yourself clean. Renounce, renounce humanity. Wipe the slate clean. All desire of all fear. All sorrows all things held near. To your heart to your soul. Where it hurts you the most. Trafficking in tragedy. All tomorrows become yesterdays. By your own hands betrayed.

Behold, betrayed Embattled, enervated Mirrored gaze, face to face Self-incriminated enemy Machine elegant Fashion plate mannequin Cast a frail shadow embittered, enraged Circling the drain Behold the betrayed Mirrored gaze, face to face Head abuzz nausea swarming Slave away: Take the pain Under the weight: Preordained State of grace State of grace Attain the martyring Martyring, martyring - achieve state of grace Exalted sorrowed station Head abuzz nausea swarming Exalted sorrowed station Indomitable ambiguity Architect of the undoing Indomitable ambiguity: the architect of the undoing Unrivalled savagery: the architect of the undoing Martyring, martyring: attain state of grace... architect of the undoing
