A Cruel Education

Born
Covered in blood, under the moon, after the storm
His mother wept, clutching the deck, watching the stern
While the captain was filing his horns
Torn
Off of her breast over the edge into the sea
Gone. Beyond. Her screams
As the devils are stalking her dreams
I can save you
All you need to
Do is say my name
Yes
I am a pawn I am a tool I am a prize
I will accept whatever death you will devise
Save him from these angry skies
Now
He is grown, he is alone, a man on the rise
A voice gnashing of teeth whispering lies
In his mind when he closes his eyes
Born
Out of a need, planting a seed, hoping to see
Beat to the deck, bitter he wept, down on his knees
No man as unwanted as he
Defiled
Reviled
Gone
Gone
I can save you
All you need to
Do is say my name

An Angry Sea

Witness the Angry Sea
She doesn't care she's
Dispassionate, unnatural
Bile and Brine
Isn't she Cold and Clean
Teeming with broken dreams
Gluttonous, devouring
Sailors like me
Now I am lost where before I had cause to believe
Isn't she just like me
A victim of vanity
Insolent, inconsolate
A sluaghterling
Witness the mastery
Incalculable when she
Revels in malevolence
Refusing to bend
Soaking and swearing and freezing I fight to the end
Drifting she's liltingly
Floating away from me
Gradually vanishing
Out of sight
Sinking she's panicking
No helping hand reaching
Faltering watery
Swallowed the sea
Sinking inside of the void she's denied to the living

A Departure; Embarkation

Awake
Lost
Upon the sea I’m tossed
Gone all wrath, the coming of the storm
Waves
Crest
A sullen crucifix
One final breath, I’m completely enveloped
The weight of the silence, the taste of the brine
With the possession, the desolate singular point, my horizon
Fighting the fleeting of feeling: such a possession is stolen
We Shall Be Thy Savior Now
Brought to the brink of brightness and stolen away from the salt
Breaking the bondage of drowning and Borne ever aloft in the night
Suspended in silence ascending, watching the gentle glow
Trusting in fate I am guided, a portal to the unknown
We Shall Be Thy Tormentors
Now we have you in our grasp
A healthy specimen at last
To unfurl the depths of it’s kind
We must experiment on it’s mind
First we open up the skull
To make room for the hose on this device
Soon it’s will is faded out
It is ready to become one

A Failed Experiment
03:29
|
|||
we have been coalesced
we are the fodder and we volunteered for this 'honor'
having been sequestered in isolation
a failed experiment; a suffering, struggling, sputtering, ugly thing
enduring pain untold
make us better
Make us smarter
make us faster
make us stronger
make us masters of all
a breakdown of cell walls
fusing of tissue confusing an issue of conflated dna and
unchecked expression of every gene at one
frothing and foaming it forms a tetranoma:
a grotesque mass of limbs and teeth
helpless servants
bound to one
awakened
consiousness
Awaked; rampage forth: raging and confused
unexpectedly forced to conciousness
we struggle from within
the assertion of focus intending to kill,
susceptible to influence
finality
resolution
struggle inwards
to assert
a suicidal will
