Ephemeral

Hang your head and sew your mouth shut with fear
Cower your head as he approaches near
Blame yourself for every blow he lands
Your body, a canvas for his bloodied hands

Your screams will fall upon deaf ears

Hide your face
Learn your place
Never again to see the light of day

Always question, "Why me?"
To end this life I didn't choose
I find my peace within this noose

Not all scars show
Not all wounds heal
You'll never really know the pain that I feel

"I looked at the stars, and considered how awful it would be for a man to turn his face Up to them as he froze to death, and see no help or pity in all the glittering multitude."

"I know that I am mortal by nature, and ephemeral; but when I trace at my pleasure, the Windings to and fro of the heavenly bodies... I no longer touch the earth with my feet: I Stand in the presence of Zeus himself and take my fill of ambrosia."

Ghastly fusion of impurity spawns unholy abomination
Taking the father's corporeal form
Now the fun can begin...

Your screams will fall upon deaf ears

Seeping, glistening, exposing the trachea
Screeching of metal on the spinal cord
Sever the head of the serpentine defiler
Sanguinous exchange begets equilibrium
