Holocaustum Iii a Horror
HOLY IS THE NEW FLESH
burning the rights of an ancient Sacrifice
by ancestors holy and profane
the offerings of an Intellectual ape
hairless and Afraid
of the indiscriminate night
unknown regions far from human sight,
flesh made new holy and precious
burnt to the divinity of the unknown
the thing is seen in corner of dreams n nightmares
of primitive man
a righteous being; so holy is the flesh
made new by the blood
the blood of the righteous lamb
the lamb of the infinite infernal and intimate god
the god of nothing and everything all there is and ever was
the first last and always
the alpha and omega
the universal intellect
the void
Cold inhuman or the voice next to your soul
a creator mad and whole
a being of infinite jest
the new covenant
the breaker of bread
the devour of the new flesh
the science and sacrament
of blood and atonement
feeling Valhalla calling the new flesh, home
holy and sacred
the science and sacrament
of blood and atonement
feeling new
righteous
in the flesh
the burning of offerings
to the dark void above
ashes cast to the unknown below
holy is the new flesh made clean
by an infinite creation
a finite god
of holy ghost
flesh re-mastered
masculinity of soul
the lushness of the feminine grace
a goddess
a whore
the duality of the new flesh
the tightest of lace
burning in the nights
of an ancient Sacrifice
ancestors holy and secular
the offerings of an intellectual ape
hairless and afraid of the indiscriminate night
unknown regions far from human sight
flesh new holy and precious
burnt to the divinity of the unknown
the thing is seen in corner
of dreams and nightmares
of primitive man, grand
a righteous being
so holy is the flesh
made knew by the blood
of the righteous lamb
the lamb of the infinite infernal
an intimate irrational god
cries:
“sacred is the new flesh”
“…To rethink the flow and the rhythm,
the tumbling out of the words,
is a betrayal, and it's a sin…”
So…
“…Long live the New Flesh!”
David Cronenberg
