Hell's Encore
Upon awakening; I asked myself afore this mirrors red rainwater reflection
Why am I here dancing with these slipknot silhouetted shadows....
Ghost about this acids, crossbones darkened gray grim stage!?
With its masquerade of lost within the midnight ball of nothing at all
Except empty chairs and silent sounds, of round and round these
Torn crimson curtains and blood drenched floors aflame....
Broken chandeliers with rusted chains; wilted roses strewn amid
Tarots paralyzed petrified walls of lifeless corpses rising?!
Reaching from their tombs of trapped in times take another bow
Somehow, atop the balconies ledge as the answer became clear
In ashes before these breathless slivers within, this shattered image....
