But meanwhile there was ghost in my life
And the Pomegranate Blues descended
Heard voices of Planets following
Satellites in death's purple paws
Mixed the drains by golden dragon fever
𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐮𝐫 𝐈𝐈 Lord of Dust
In the battlefields of precrescent rain
The 𝘱𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘪 rejoice and 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 is unhorsed
Speared and smeared in the desert
First and last just in dust
Smashed as 𝐀𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐚
As dead as 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐬 misted in 𝐁𝐚𝐛𝐲𝐥𝐨𝐧
The slaughter arose as Stars
Stars dragged blood and souls
Up to the Heavens
The skies filled with flies
The bird of locust flowers
Screams and wheels at the ape
Froth and fear in the nostrils of the steeds
Steering bloodhurds to the mountain fame
The hip killers are burning like devil
The trip of the light burned bright
The eyes of the blind open like whirlwinds
The breastplate of 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐞
The lamp pours light into the children's mouths
Open the slit of the conspiracy
And go further into the perfect peace
Of the perfect world envisioned by
The Murderer
The First Dead
The First Killer
The First Framer
The Farmer in 𝐒𝐨𝐝𝐨𝐦
Cattle Reaper
A thought to spear the care
Enough is too late
The sky took lies from me
Turned my head to smoke
Rising over the near East
With lips tasted of peace
And 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐝𝐨𝐦𝐬 far within
The 𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐦 the bells
And grave faces hieratic
Under the Moon
Its waves and light
Lifting the dead from under dust
Choked unmore moved
Unquick and lithe
Lifting their hearts like the 𝐒𝐮𝐧𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫
Drank 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞 Æons
And toasted toys goodnight
But around the back
Of the bars of the City of God
The Night squeals and prays entrance
Attendance for the march
The 𝘙𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘣𝘰𝘸 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘯 were trademarked
And branded on their skulls
The triple eating curve
Marked! Marked!
Hey hey 𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘳 hail hail
Grey bloody dawn down dawns
Get back black crack Moon
Slip back slide ded red Moon
