Tigers & Goats

Oh disenchanted charm

The loveless lovers' undying vows

Until death will do them part.

Bright and luminous darkness

Ere the night time's dawning sky

With still and stilling breeze

Distilling undiluted ale

From the pure corrupted proof

Of vintage-aged modernity.

Oh anachronistic dancers

A three-step waltz in five-by-four

Patterned unique conformity.

Sacred oath of perjury

With crossed-finger hand to God

Standing tall on bended knees.

Oh misbegotten child of promise

Named destitute of fate

A clear, abstract work of art

With a three-part death on wooden stake

Oh the demons here are human

And the bastard child of Father time

Just fingerprints of doubt's divine

Once a pride of manes, a flock of wool

Now jungle cats and mutton

Just blindly looking for a sign.

I Am Death 

The pathway to revealing chaos

Is begun by creating order

As in our world where factions border

Patristic, nationalistic pride

Stars and stripes and stitches in our sides.

We're crafting rules just to break them down

Singing drunken eulogies in round

Ah, but at least there is defiance

Masked puritanical compliance

But really a joker wearing spades.

Here our feeble eyes are crossed and glazed

To convey an infirm appearance.

Bondage of the will makes adherence

A betnoir's glimpse of grinning ghasts

Where Tanaris breaching reach is past

And we're just phantoms wearing halos.
