True Love
Just so you know
I always knew you loved me
I wish I could
Say the same shit about you
But I can't
That would be a lie
And I don't lie
Unless it serves a purpose
And all you serve as
Is a piece of meat
On the butcher's block
Do you love me
As I hold the clever
Over you as
You are chained down?
Express your love
As I hack up
Your brain
I always knew you loved me
I wish I could
Say the same shit about you
But I can't
That would be a lie
And I don't lie
Unless it serves a purpose
And all you serve as
Is a piece of meat
On the butcher's block
Do you love me
As I hold the clever
Over you as
You are chained down?
Express your love
As I hack up
Your brain

The Orchard Wisp
At home in the gardens and orchards
A being of such giving nature
I can see her drift like a wisp
Oh, Ponoma, I long for you nurture
All I ask of you is one apple
To cure my hunger
All it takes is a slip of the wrist
Your skin is smooth and supple
Won’t you take me in your arms?
Keep me in the woodland
So I can love you
And keep your gentle graces from harm
Oh, Ponoma, can you not see
That more than a man am I
I will fulfill you deepest needs
Among these fruitful trees?
A rejection?
But why?
A...

For Constance
Constance waits…
In a time long lost
In a bed draped in frost
Nailed to the bedposts
Like a splinter
Trapped in her grace
The Queen of Winter
I am her one and only thrall
Seduced to her service
Manipulated by her caressing cat-paws
Long has her beauty been mine
To feast my eyes
Until it has come, her awakening time
A queen of winter
From sleep she works her possession
Hold me to her breast
The mourning of pain is now in session
Glorious tortures are spoke to me
Of things to come
When...

Entombed
I live in the ground with all the rats and snakes and bugs
Spending lost hours crawling in the mud
With insanity comes laughter that bursts from my lips
An eternity alone has made me sick
Inside these catacombs, this home I call my grave
Visions of death have left me depraved
Among the dirt and mildew I can make out the smell of rot
Self-preservation has become self-taught
Wrapped in the shrouds of my fathers
Break free but why bother?
Clean air would decay my
Body and the sun would burn my eyes
Though I would love to strangle...

Wrapped in the shrouds of my fathers

Body and the sun would burn my eyes

The Silver Glass
What is this?
I can see a world of colors through the silver glass
Watching everything that comes with the future
And is gone with the past
Can you see?
Me looking back at you, seeing through you
I am just a shadow on the backdrop
Do you even have a clue?
Shadow world
In here the tones are all black and grey
The grass is darkness and the clouds spew
The sun’s light darkens day
But I watch
As sorrow fills you heart, cutting does it’s part
The stinging pain makes you feel alive
That shard looks wicked sharp...

Taint Beneath The Paint
Face down in the ground at the edge of town
Lays a clown with a frown in his burial shroud
All the laughter
Taken away
Left with only
Tears
Defaced and disgraced
I can taste
The blood mingled with tears
Unjust and undone
I will shun
A world full of fears
The little children
And their lies
LIES! LIES! LIES!
The angry parents
And their cries
DIE! DIE! DIE!
But no bodies will be found
Their bones are not in the ground
This little clown likes fun
After they’re dead in the sun
Snap the limbs when...

THE BADDEST MOTHERf**kER
When I burst from the womb
I was clad in leather and chains
Spiked metal studs and pitiless eyes
Eagerly awaiting the pleasurable pain
When the doctor slapped me
I couldn’t take that, so I kicked his ass
Laid his broken body out
And fucked every nurse to the last
I am…
The Baddest Motherfucker In The World
Like a devil with his wings unfurled
For the ladies there’s no resistance
So, fellas, keep your distance
I have let my leather wings unfurl
‘Cuz I’m…

The Immortal Curse
Looking into a mirror
What I see is bleak and hollow
Must I be the bearer
Of such weakness and sorrow?
I have not the power
To face many more days
From my lonely tower
The sun shines no more rays
I was cursed
With undying grace
It has spawned
This withered face
For all time
Staring from a hearse
Until time ends
The Immortal Curse
Someone please show me
A way off of the unjust rock
Someone please silence
The drone of the tick-tock
It is eating away my brain
Like it’s made of grain
I must board a...

The Ashes of Christ
A spirit with godlike powers once filled a void
Filled millions of hearts with hope and joy
His only son was placed upon a cross
After he died for our sins, all was lost
Then came those with the word of God
With whips, blades and the divining rod
Told us what we could believe in
Killing thousands for made up sins
Over years the Son would slowly fade
Into cold and blurring shade
We lost what we were made to learn
The ashes of Christ scattered in turn
Finally it became safe to pray
Once the faith had become grey
The day that...

Beastly Little Creatures
Can you hear them
Outside?
Crying in the mist
Inside
The moonlit shadows?
Screaming children
Darkness
Obscures the view
Duress
Under torment
Beastly creatures
Dreadful features
Witch’s cauldron
Devil’s children
They hunt in the night
Never seeing the light
Ending another life
Sawing with a knife
Wild and never clean
They will rip out a spleen
Take the flesh to their teeth
To them, you’re only meat
Beastly little creatures
The smell of fear
So sweet
A cry for help

Divining the Infernal
Deep down in the ice, I wait
For the one that will set me free
Inside is a hunger I cannot sate
My waters churning the sea
In thoughts of my long exile
Turning under the World Tree
Torments of my cruel trials
Currents frothing as I bleed
I need a Goddess to break my cage
You need a Devil to sate your rage
I need You to make a decision
To free me from my prison
A wicked Chimera of Mother Earth
On your journey from the Underworld
My shadow mistress giving me birth
Rising up in the night, your wings unfurled
You...
For the one that will set me free

The Creeping Sleeper
For eternity It has lived in the abyss
Forever sliding, forever gliding
A mass of grasping tentacles
That is sleeping, that is creeping
Made of untold might, a Seal not meant
For human sight
Do you dare invoke the name, and chance the chance
Of It’s game?
It was born in the deep cold, through all time
It has grown old
A being filled with hate, for our kind
It’s hunger cannot sate
Rising from the darkness
There is no salvation
To devour our world
There’s only damnation
Crushed under It’s foot...
