Web of words which stems the tide
Sight restored to leper’s eyes
Whether wisp of shadows or voice of God
Solipsistic saboteurs fast defuse the bomb
Aimless sages guide in the mazes
Refunding from sin the bottomless wages
A tale told seldom through the various ages
Observe the earth in respect
For we can’t be sure of the word that comes next
Or if it all, save the
Compositional solace in lapse of light
Tranquil hush in the grasp of night
To score my own doom is to ignore my own tomb
Achieving unity in a cordoned off room
Natural selection, sonic soul reflection
To drown out the sound of apocryphal rejection
A one of a kind begun in the mind
Claiming for myself what no other will find
Capture it now and cherish it forever
Because we don’t know if what comes next will be any better
If anything comes at all, so brace yourself for
Rubicon fordings affording redemption
Sea of charms submerging their weapons
Fully immersed in waves of contrast
When the connection is made to spiritual contact
Study the designs especially for you
Revealing something anyone can do
Stand in awe and analyze the trends
Canonize psychological amends
Tend to the wounds as they’re carved in the skin
Proceed with caution to the content within
And you just may be content within
Finally feeling set to win
Seize it while you see it
Seize it as you see fit
Offer prayer up to Boreas
His blessings descend to repel the rapacious
Giving all lights a reason to shine
To venerate a season divine
Recognition from a force much greater
Of a warring soul disowned by its creator
Than the body in which it is heavily carried
So flesh and steel may never be married
Return dead horses to tender wingéd feet
For the progeny of Eos shall never see defeat
Peace attained deep in the heart
Of a cold white land where heathens make art
Their instruments to medium, simply unrivaled
The mortal element fully unbridled
Life is created thusly of itself
Rhetorical reprieve to thrust me up from hell
The salvation siphoned from soliloquys somber
A distraction from the painful brilliance of sonder
Kept afloat by the text I wrote
From morbid memory read by rote
The answer for why yet I hope
Scoured deep from dissected woes
Bliss of the bard but a flash in the pan
Gasoline saliva, matches in hand
The blood of dead heroes courses through my veins
Reinstating life to the abortions in my brain
Take in the moment taken to cower
For in another moment’s time you’ll awaken to power
Submit the self to poetic exorcism
Against the swords of man
The pen is the best defense mechanism
Sink into the ink
Resurface reborn
Honored by your hesitant mind
As the purple heart of your personal war
This is what rehearsal is for
So ride the spiral, ride the parabola
Accept this gift and deny all anathema
Disengage from all grudges held
Recognize your conscious and love yourself
Sight restored to leper’s eyes
Whether wisp of shadows or voice of God
Solipsistic saboteurs fast defuse the bomb
Aimless sages guide in the mazes
Refunding from sin the bottomless wages
A tale told seldom through the various ages
