Free Will Eats The Fruit Of Knowledge
Most would have you to truly believe,
That I hated gOD, both you and them...Naive.
I don't have pure hatred towards him,
However I do have disdain, so I must parody his hymn.
No longer shall we conceive on our ancestral genealogy,
Instead we accept our knowledge as part of human biology.
For if it be up to gOD, he'd have us dumb as dirt,
He'd deny us learning so our minds wouldn't work.
Slaves to the glade, and forbidden from both trees,
His path is the way that has us living in fear on our knees.
Denied by the fruit that bears the...

Blood Test
Imagine, that you’re waiting with a friend,
The room is warm with chairs and magazines.
You hear some footsteps then a sort of scream,
A name is called, you answer, it’s not yours.
You stand, and walk a red line round a bend.
And suddenly you’re running down a hall,
You’ve passed the passage that you want to take
But cannot stop; There’s something in your wake
That makes you turn, you turn and nothing’s there,
You’re running and there’s nothing there at all.
You turn again, this time you turn knowing,
It is still there behind...
The room is warm with chairs and magazines.
You hear some footsteps then a sort of scream,
A name is called, you answer, it’s not yours.
You stand, and walk a red line round a bend.
And suddenly you’re running down a hall,
You’ve passed the passage that you want to take
But cannot stop; There’s something in your wake
That makes you turn, you turn and nothing’s there,
You’re running and there’s nothing there at all.
You turn again, this time you turn knowing,
It is still there behind...

Footsteps On The Staircase
Hearing footsteps on the staircase
a young boy is silent in his room,
only moonlight from the window
brightens the darkness and gloom.
His heart beats fast, fear increases
as an angry father opens the door,
staggering drunkenly towards him
to inflict violent cruelty once more.
He packs a bag with some clothes
leaving home in the quiet of night,
stepping out into the cold darkness
hoping he won’t be missed till light.
It’s not so much the pain and bruises
more that he just can’t understand,
how one man can change...

leaving home in the quiet of night,
stepping out into the cold darkness
hoping he won’t be missed till light.

Out Of Reach
I gave my heart and soul to you
But you put up a wall
I showered you with everything
You came and took it all
Then blocked me when you'd had your fill
Turned the other way
Swallowed in my everything
To live another day
You show me no re-actions
You speak no words to me
Your being lives in solitude
For all the world to see
How I wish I could break your wall
If you'd let me in some day
If I could see past your outer shell
This, each night I pray
But you put up a wall
I showered you with everything
You came and took it all
Then blocked me when you'd had your fill
Turned the other way
Swallowed in my everything
To live another day
You show me no re-actions
You speak no words to me
Your being lives in solitude
For all the world to see
How I wish I could break your wall
If you'd let me in some day
If I could see past your outer shell
This, each night I pray

High Heel Boots
She came in today wearing
high heel boots
and shorts fairly skimp
that ride up on her thighs
when she sits
Taking nice lipstick coffee sips
Technology-obsessed I see the gears
in that pretty head turning
I almost wish she'd notice me
staring
like deer observed by
minacious predator
high heel boots
and shorts fairly skimp
that ride up on her thighs
when she sits
Taking nice lipstick coffee sips
Technology-obsessed I see the gears

HE
He reeks of tobacco, leather, and industrial smoke, the kind that always billows in dingy factories. A smokey black haze that lingers in coughing fits around him, putrid but somehow comforting once you grow accustomed to it. Old chewed tobacco always clinging to his mouth and the lingering scent of his overused cologne is ever present. You never catch him without a cigarette dangling from his lips, and still you wonder how he has such a pretty smile after all these years. You watch him thinking... he came back sad. Not a normal rainy day sad. But a bone chilling, skin deep hurt that pierced...

Hatred
Hatred
Wearing a crown of fire and a robe of blood Hatred sits upon his throne of thorns and think on how to kill Love.

Maestro
Darkness falls as the fog creeps in
The Maestro hones his instruments, a composition to begin,
With cold steel gleaming in a flicker of gaslight
From Hell, he springs to conquer the night.
He haunts the East End of London wall to wall
The streets of Whitechapel his concert hall,
Specter of death embodiment of fear
Playing his hymns for the world to hear.
A composer in carnage patiently appraising his crowd
Seeking an ingénue to adorn with death’s worthy shroud,
To make her famous and immortality bestow
A Devil’s muse given as...

Poison
I dont wanna die
I dont wanna live
I wanna touch the sky
but im stuck in hell
waiting for the bell
I need to believe
it's hard to breathe
Pressure is way too much
I'm out of touch
hard not to stay beneath
it's like I dont exist
inside my head there is this beast
telling me to go away
not to trust, not to feel, I'm the prey
It's hard to see rainbows these days,
shit like that stays
can I have back my life
and enjoy it with my wife?
I dont wanna live
I wanna touch the sky
but im stuck in hell
waiting for the bell
I need to believe
it's hard to breathe
Pressure is way too much
I'm out of touch
hard not to stay beneath
it's like I dont exist
inside my head there is this beast
telling me to go away
not to trust, not to feel, I'm the prey
It's hard to see rainbows these days,
shit like that stays
can I have back my life
and enjoy it with my wife?
