SaintHood Genetics +

 

Christened to become a fly

with a million rotten eyes

 

I chew on you, as you feed me

 

I am feeding from a pool of dead lies

swamp infested waters of maggots and flies

Misery

Draped in silence, and misery

How much further, to wander?

Hiding the dead, burdened

The desire has awoken.

 

Mountains of time, passed

Moments of passing, lost

How much greater, the wonder?

The perfect era has come,

To clothe me in light, desertion

Among a crowded swarm.

Eternity looked back at you.

With slavering eyes.

You did not mind?

 

Eternity held your hand

In the darkening bliss

Of the craved apocalypse.

And you did not mind?

don't ever feel restricted by rules.

Inside me there is

A playground of ageing dreams

There lying with the receipts

"I ask you for your forever - eternity

To guide me, I know I can trust you

My dearest companion

Of the dark

I know I can trust you."

 

"So please, one more time

Let me your hand?

And gaze again, across the table

Into my eyes

Before the dark comes

I know I can trust you."

This is not a haiku

 

I am not a chain

That ties your heart to my mind

I am only a human

Scared of losing you

Give me something more

Whistle another fucking tune

Before i scream forty six and two

A useful idiot made of me

Choked her dreams on eulogies

Pain and comfort my reflection

of a patient pushing it down

Into the bowels of the aenima

And fear schisms contort the face

While paranoia tears me up

In tears over the pot

Starving for 10,000 days

and more.
