Godess grant me Death or desire: Satan led assault on the citadel
I stand weary among overrun ruins
in a temple of the moons combustible crescent
built
for a godess who abandoned her throne
now a cenotaph
"MAUSOLEUM, MAUSOLEUM!"
she cried out
"SUSTAINER OF THE UNIVERSE!
PARADISE WAS NOT LOST BUT FOUND!
IN WORDS ANGELS DO NOT ADDRESS OTHER ANGELS, BUT WITH A GLANCE GUILDED IN GOLD! WORKING WINGS WEIGH HEAVY ON CLOUDS PAINTED MICHELANGELO!
the chandeliers were on fire
and the thrones were mean't to be overthrown
spilling blood and bowel
God has sovereignty over this kingdom of men
we grew arrogant as Belshazzar at his feast
so convening in Pandæmonium now
we shut out the world to our inner feelings
closed off invisible
these dreams they froze solid
not supple but fragile
thin
for what is faith if not frostbitten preying at the pews to be tested
4 chambers of the heart
holding on to these wordly posessions
pretending it will never end
renounce these articles of faith
we're all here because aliens fucked a monkey
so the Christians stormed off fuming
the agnostics laughed and laughed
so we still stood weary among overrun ruins
the whole time knowing
we were the raging siege of weapons
never to withdrawl
in a temple of the moons combustible crescent
built
for a godess who abandoned her throne
now a cenotaph
"MAUSOLEUM, MAUSOLEUM!"
she cried out
"SUSTAINER OF THE UNIVERSE!
