the cleansing

this is the skeleton I built
finish it or fuck it
I have my demons
and they need to be set loose into the air
like smoke leaving a fire
it's the procession of things
and the air will either be possessed and enchanted
or revolted and executional towards the shadows I'm emptying of
but I can't be bothered by these details
things will rise and fall as they will
my only concern is with the motivation it takes
to expose what it is in my heart and guts
this is my confessional
and at the gate of Grand Guignol theater I will vomit my extremes
enter if you want to see the lamb sacrificed
in the name of the devils in my stomach
or die at the doorstep
where so many chosen to rest their heads to avoid seeing
a sickness that only evolves
the only way to heal
the only way to relieve any of this at all
is to cut my stomach open and let what comes out
that which may
