Skeletal Remains I

Strange filiment of twine
Mark the passage of time
Counting the scars of pain
Moments washing overs these skeletal remains
Burning down thy kingdom, come
Humanity
Strange secret Lies are told to hide the shame 
An ornate ornamental 
objective truth is passed down 
the leagues of time
One can not hid the imagery 
of the crime weaving strange filaments 
of memories into a tapestry of tragedy
Counting the sparrows 
the markers of sorrow
The tormented lies burrows deep into tomorrow
Seconds from burn out, 
the hollow one
Remains a drift in the home 
of the last lineages 
Washing over these 
strange secrets skeletal remains,
The remains of an angry beast
Burning the empire of the mind 
The Kingdom of the endless hours erode 
Into the deep seas of sorrow
hallow be thy nameless divinities jest 
Memory thy name is Sparrow, 
fly in my minds eye
the maker of sorrows talons rest
Burning down the flesh 
exposing of the odd ornate objects of antiquity. 
Cracked and covered in lies like tangle wire
A Life lived, flowing into tomorrow 
A life behind the vast vacant vail
Set a match, watch it burn 
Tear down your crown 
Burying it in the ground
There Lies humanities
strange skeletal remains.
