|
So we forge onward through lonely valleys of pious pretense. |
|
No healthy prophets encountered outside these steely inquisitor's eyes. |
|
No men of any monotone god we could stand proud beside. |
|
They and their gilt-riddled baubles cast onto the blazing temple pyres, |
|
holy whore houses proudly reduced to ashes of sweetest desecration. |
|
Soporific spirits quaffed from dusty, sightless skulls. |
|
Strong-heart would not entertain their malady. |
|
Weak of will tangled in leprosy. |
|
Spiritual sickness babbling incessantly. |
|
Babbling Babylon put to the torch. |
|
Pinched faces staring through funereal fog, |
|
felt flame broiled crook'd hands a'grasp. |
|
Ground them to fine dust, snorted them deep. |
|
Left coated in confusion, with my lack of sleep. |
|
You that seek to encode reality, to defraud sanity - |
|
Be damned! |
|
You that seek to incarcerate spirit, to calcify astral eyes - |
|
Be damned! |
|
Be mindful that mind is not you. |
|
Be mindful that you are not mind. |
|
Be mindful that heart knows how this goes. |
|
As real as Azrael? |
|
Don't mind - never mind. |
|
Don't mind - never mind. |
