Face of Death

More than a reflection
Less than a shadow
Disturbing presence
Distorts the heaving space
Nascent it seethes
Occult form
Bends the mundane world
Reality's fabric torn

A wound cascading time
Bleeds annihilation
Day light shuns
Its uncanny absence

Approaches inexorable intelligent malevolence
Approaching inexorable malevolence
Approaches inexorable intelligent malevolence
Approaching inexorable malevolence

Not the tale of dying flesh
But the memory
Of a will to defy
The absurdity of existence
Compelled into nothing
Terrifying prospect
Never more asleep
No longer intoxicated
But sobered with dread

Approaches inexorable intelligent malevolence
Approaching inexorable malevolence

Amorphous shape into which I project
Fear and loathing ambition regret
The face of an idol mistaken for a god
Radiant like an angel yet smeared with blood

Amorphous shape into which I project
Fear and loathing ambition regret
The face of an idol mistaken for a god
Radiant like an angel yet smeared with blood

Amorphous shape into which I project
Fear and loathing ambition regret
The face of an idol mistaken for a god
Radiant like an angel yet smeared with blood

Amorphous shape into which I project
Fear and loathing ambition regret
The face of an idol mistaken for a god
Radiant like an angel yet smeared with blood

More than a reflection
Yet less than a shadow
Its disturbing presence
Distorts heaving space
A wound cascaded through time
Bleeding annihilation
Nature's futility
Resolved into nothing
