Jagged Flesh That Carries A River.

Jagged flesh that carries a river of sauntered

Melodies so rich with the strife of driven beings,

My song is your cavity,

And your dance is my rain that saturates my feverish

Palate with that salt from my burning tears.

Mystic flame that guides me on my quest for knowledge,

I thirst for my peaches that cling to your tree.

I want to dapple in the rhythms of thunder,

And push through the frozen fluff that serenades

Our troubled sky.

I wish to banter through steel doors

Of the phantom’s blind horizon,

So the trespassers shall weep when my blood is shed,

And washes clean the sins of the lavished and strewn.

I come to share with you the secrets of tomorrow

Where perils brew inside caustic minds

After the forgotten are withdrawn into themselves,

Trapped inside the prisons of their molten visions.

I shall be the remnants that provide a haven for lost souls

That have been shaken by the bulls whip.

For I shall crack the earth with my razor that has become

My voice during these seething hours.

I shall forage through the fire,

And breathe life into the masses that assemble themselves

Before God; therefore, their milky spirits shall converge

With the liquid gold that surrounds my emblazoned eyes.
