Devotee Divorcee
She said she wasn't the same,
So what do I have to lose,
Besides being rejected by the dame,
Still bereft of the right to choose,
Still the lawyer's feels to pay,
When will justice have its way,
Over the anarchy of the home,
Fight back against the monopoly,
Even when you stand alone,
Anecdotes do not personify,
The enemy lurking in my arms,
Hold fast the flood's approaching,
For their verbal onslaughts will cause you harm,
Prepare to become revolutionary.

The Uniting of the West
Ages of hibernation,
Centuries of degeneration,.
lacking the intuition,
To believe our "superstitions",
Led to a fall without elevation,
Onto the sands of desolation,
That began eroding the foundation,
Of our superior civilization.
They posses fanatical motivation,
Born from authoritarian religious persuasion,
That seeks the complete eradication,
Of all the "heretical nations",
But they have botched their calculations,
Regarding the strength of our fortifications,
So we will unite as one population,
Against...

To Understand My Fall
What is your opinion on torture,
For some it is their most perverse pleasure,
And to others, their most heinous crime,
But to me, it is an art meant to be perfected for wartime,
A proper torture is not judged by the pain inflicted or even information extracted,
No, the sole measurement of a torture's effectiveness is how much a victim's mind has been eradicated,
is their mind still capable of ruling their body after the deed is done,
Or is left vacant and rotting like my husband's corpse in the afternoon sun,
If your victim's mind still maintains yet a fraction...

Shoddy Bandaids and Complex Metaphors
Hey kids I'm going to make a quick trip to the store,
We're all out of bandaids again and we desperately need more,
For my wounds are bleeding profusely after the last set tore,
All have been exposed from my orphaned childhood to after the second war,
Is this death by a thousand cuts I'm not keeping score,
I could've sworn I saw our neighbor Eustice Nuoin wearing one so therefore,
He must have some to lend to his old friend Sam Bailor,
I'll just go across the pond and knock on his door,
This will surely save some time on an honest trip to the store,
Unless...

Diary of the Sun
From the dawning of life,
In the depths of the sea,
One people rose above the primordial strife,
To embrace an contemporary civility,
And forged a civilization apart from their hominid brethren,
Cousins so distant their evolutionary polarity was personified as victor and loser,
Mother Earth had never seen a people so noble nor a progress so driven,
By a willpower that exceeded the basic tenants of ethnic survivors,
No, these people were meant for more than chanting half naked in the jungle,
To be more than feudal lords or subsistence farmers,
But rather...

The Cold Felt After Hours
Deftly you travel,
Be it ice or air,
Through atmospheric panels,
And liquid guard rails,
Days with no beginning,
Seasons with no end,
From the moment you began skating,
To the second I turned my head,
Own eyes lock indefinitely,
You leave your arms outstretched,
While mine entwine instinctively,
My callousness leaves you disheartened,
So you break our gaze,
And I return to my blindness,
Yet even as I'm cold-blooded I require a heating brace,
A signal, a spark from a single smile's brilliance,
For without water surely I will...

Black Dress What A Mess
Black dress,
The fortitude of color put to the test,
By the cacophony of incessant pests,
Preying upon a perfect cylinder under duress,
Unaware of the heart right under her chest,
Suffocated by her skin she exhumes without her behest,
An anamorphic monster that claimed violence was best,
To silence the swarm of insects that made her mind their nest,
So she grabbed a scalpel and made a mess,
All over her black dress.
The fortitude of color put to the test,

To silence the swarm of insects that made her mind their nest,
So she grabbed a scalpel and made a mess,

Little Fire Just Fly
Why are you walking,
It's reserved for the Dreamless,
You have wings don't you.
The Dreamless wander,
Softly so the dust won't stir,
Silent as shadows.
But you're meant to soar,
Shake the earth and split the sky,
Little fire just fly.
It's reserved for the Dreamless,
You have wings don't you.
The Dreamless wander,
Softly so the dust won't stir,
Silent as shadows.
But you're meant to soar,
Shake the earth and split the sky,
Little fire just fly.

Collar Over Mouth
The moonlight crusaders,
Fabled hounds of the night,
Stalking the lands of the father,
As harbingers of the Third Reich,
Though hounds in title,
They are united in blood,
A purity forged by wont of reprisal,
Against the carnal natures of the descendants of mud,
By committing essential assassinations,
To eliminate the enemies of Aryan liberty,
And the people of Germany.
From their birthplace in the sea,
To their mountainous retreats,
They stand alone in defiance,
To multi-ethnic reliance,
For if one is already superior,
Why...

Hold Fast the Rope
Tie him down,
Cement his shoes,
We must ensure his promises,
Are never followed through,
For he wages war,
On our house so flammable,
So we'll wreathe his noose,
With his actions so damnable,
Prepare him to march,
The people must witness,
The shame of a traitor,
And the price of resistance,
Pull the lever,
Before he inspires hope,
So that the masses won't save him,
By holding fast the rope.
Cement his shoes,

They Said They Didn't See Color
Black hands and blacker hearts,
Isn't that always how the trouble starts,
When the few above,
Govern the many below,
And olive branch toting doves,
Flee in droves,
Silence the mind,
The heart is talking,
Logic's lagging behind,
Because the fanatics are gawking,
At the fire on his tongue,
That dances as he speaks,
Flint striking the lungs,
Against the matches in his teeth,
"Die a lonely death",
All who pray,
Your faith reeks of Macbeth,
So easy to betray,
Caution with your fever,
You're likely to burn up,...
