Elohim Stairs
Climb beyond flesh and bone
An ascent towards divinity's throne
72 names writ now unfold
Glory for the young and old
Thrones of wisdoms unfurled
Eyes like glowing white pearl
Befoulment towards death
An eternity before final breath
Come as ye serpents are
Lay with the trampled Morningstar
An ascent towards divinity's throne
72 names writ now unfold
Glory for the young and old
Thrones of wisdoms unfurled
Eyes like glowing white pearl
Befoulment towards death
An eternity before final breath
Come as ye serpents are
Lay with the trampled Morningstar

Blossoming Sin Putrescent
Ravaging the soul
Temptation ascended
Between the pestle and bowl
Heaven now rended
The skeletons now dance
A chalice now sanguine
Devil eyes in a trance
Sacred shapes withered thin
Radiance of infernal shine
Sevenfold immolation rite
Usurped and inverse divine
Brilliance of perdition in the night
Temptation ascended
Between the pestle and bowl

The skeletons now dance
A chalice now sanguine
Devil eyes in a trance
Sacred shapes withered thin
Radiance of infernal shine
Sevenfold immolation rite

Brilliance of perdition in the night

Jeebus
I'm dead in a ditch.
Jeebus did it because I believed.
He's a soul sucker, on his knees.
Kissing the people's feet.
I wish his fishing boat,
Would stop carrying me.
I'm 'bout to bounce,
And set myself free!
Free like the birds riding the sun,
Not to tomorrow.
I aint no Cinderelli dressed in yelly.
I'm the destroyer!
Leaving you all dead in ditches.
I suck your soul!
I sever heads!
Mindless. Tweeking.
Faith is my meth.
Now let me heal you,
With the...

Plastic Jesus
Plastic Jesus
The Lethe magic of
a blue spandex swirl
of bicycle shorts
Clothes the articles
Of her Declaration of Independence
From the torrential male reign
Of hurricane force designs
On her surrogate womb
For your thermonuclear embryos
Spun into mossy opium dream
Begat by prophetic voices yearning to be heard
By cloven tongued evangelists of Golgotha ...

Drag Queens and Blue Eyed Jesus
Here we are banning books about Rosa Parks
while the Pastor dresses in drag on Sunday
spewing a sermon of love that sounds more like hate
then goes home to berate his wife and children
but that's o.k. he asked for forgiveness
so next Sunday he'll expose the evils of bourbon
white Jesus with his flowing locks and blue eyes
carrying all his divine interventions
can't seem to rise above it all ...

Vision 2
The sun impresses fire into my being.
And.
I want to steal it.
And bury it deep.
In Tyrannus' depth.
I walked among the funeral pyres.
Caked in the dust of so many dead.
Things.
And.
On the horizon is coming autumn.
In the air is stinging winter.
How many cycles left?
How many austerities.
Til I break through.
To the Gods and spirits.
And, offer my taboo trickster spirit.
Some blood.
From a sacrificial offering.

Vision 1
It cuts like fire.
It burns a knife inside my soul.
This is irrelevant.
This is unmediated.
And on all the indigo sunsets.
I etch my epitath.
I am in darkness.
The light has gone out.
And.
I am now rotting.
Fetid.
Foul.

M.A.C.A.
I don't believe in God
but if I did
I would pray to him or her
to Make America Compassionate Again.
If God can't do that
He or she should smite those that
tarnish his name by disguising
themselves as Christians.
You can become POTUS
If you lie
If you bully
If you despise
If you're a felon
But you cannot be a Christian.
You may ask
when God is going to intervene
but he doesn't have to
America is destroying itself
using his name to do so.

THE HELL IS REAL
They lure me with wealth in heaven
as if plucking a pubic hair
would reduce weight of the dead body
they don’t see the bruises abandoned
on the fading skin of apple
that rolls metaphors in the basket
sleeplessly I watch her drift in dreams
on the horizon float to descend
for a share in the horrors of earth
they blindly conceal to hoodwink
god’s will for poets cultured in the past
now glittering as the sun’s wreckage
I can’t clean nor rebuild around them
the hell is real I can’t run away
with sweet...

A Night in the Museum
I was attending a meeting
hosting a keynote speaker
whom I did not know
During the presentation
the internet connection was lost
and I found myself sitting
next to the speaker
discussing potential options
for a better connection
A fundraiser was suggested
while he politely asked
if I was a Sociologist
At that time, the host
a gangly old man, obviously
frustrated by our discourse
abruptly blurted out:
"We don't use oracle cards...

Endless Night
Today I returned
Awakened
Harmony divided
In my faith
Past memories
God is who I hate
Searching the betrayal
Shadows of light
Silent Tomorrow's
Endless night's

Holy Shit!
God and I are having disagreements...
.....
God said, "Let there be light!"
I said, "Let there be light beer!"
..
God created Eve from Adam's rib.
I ordered a plate of ribs for a hot lesbian orgy!
..
Satan, disguised as a snake, tempted Eve and she and Adam ate the forbidden fruit and were banished from the Garden of Eden.
I said, "Wait a minute! God tempted them by putting the forbidden fruit there in the first place!"
