Dark Side
Beyond in the Shadows Lies a nature unexplored. A transient cold White hot and infernal a dimension available Solely to the bold. Pain is not pain When not conceived as pain Its essence is twistable Programmable; A haven for the insane. Tethered to chains will we both spasm You writhe in anguish, While I orgasm. “He who makes a beast of himself Gets rid of the pain of being a man” No greater sense No deeper chasm Than looking to water reflective in the night and seeing not yourself But a demon in the sprite. Insanity a polarity, Just one face of the coin. Neither side for the better or for worse Two poles never to conjoin. How understand you The hallowed tranquility of flames on the flesh. Or the cold romance of the skin and a mesh. I declare my serenity the sum of your fear and your spite, And that my creed be the anti-dictum of the heralders of your Light. That the awe of this blackness you dare not illuminate Is so mine. Mine alone, By blood and by bone. Leave me be now, ye shackles alive To my own devices to meaning derive. Speak not in my ears to your religion drive To my own nirvana now let me arrive. |

Prometheus Again
Strange stardust Coursing through my veins Delirium blackhole infinite of cotton are these chains. Not transcendental Or holy or malign just dry sliced truth There is nothing divine. These chemic cosmicites play centrifuges in the blood Splitting the magic from the mundane and the gold from the flood. Binary blatancy The lone cold fact Dead dust will we be, Not spirits abstract. Alive but once Just once and just once Owe nothing to the scowling hags or the brass tops and tyrannists with their bloodshot black flags. A bullet in my head A syringe in my vein “No”, “Not right” My life, my right Ill do it and ill do it again. I am an artist. An artistI say. Indulge me, you bastards. Indulge in my way. |

Eight Horse Vacuum
Swaying on the edge of Two savage hyperboles One a ghost pathway, Brilliant and alone The other a betrayal of my Self If it I choose to roam. This treason of the ego May bring kith and kin, A smile on my face, But not serenity within. It shall render me the pleasures of the flesh; Luciferous charm I do possess. Hidden, yes But brewing placidly in lethal excess. To surge volcanically when its passion pressed Violent shuddering in salacious zest. Oh! Beckons to me does Fingers through my hair and skins in convergence Vulnerable and bare. Lest I trade My sovereignty for the chemical romance of a second in spare. I banish these thoughts: for all love is but a love affair Outlasted only by solitude in flight A lonely walk in the embrace of the night. The spirit of One in bold ignite. Pining for connexion with souls not your own Is but a trait of survival A trait outgrown. My time it is to attend the highest peak Maslow's final tier: A path of pain and a path alone. |
