"Immolation"



I move into you 
like a roaring Queensland Summer
You’re overtaken by heat, yet think I’m unobtainable

I’m too far away

A grown-arsed man 
owns the footsteps he walks in 
travels his world

scared of a woman 
gone 
grown-arsed girl

“Man Oh Man 
she’s so not safe, 
she’s so non-linear”

I...

The Muse of Immolation
Black wings are beating a sharp tattoo,
A-tattering on your skull.
A raven is perched on all of you
There is:  a bone-white hull.

The love of your youth, she floats in mist.
Your triumphs and brave defeats
And manhood expire.  No dreams exist.
Just bones, where the black wing...

Premium Member The Sun's Self Immolation
The pale faced young damsel
By evening turned into a blushing bride
Her cheeks made red with rouge
And her lips glossed in cherry red

But the makeup artist, before
Seeing the magic of his deft touch
By some sudden mental derailment
In a bid at self immolation, 
Set fire to himself

Badly...

Immolation
I HAVE FIVE THINGS TO SAY

Heaven above crying,
With the virtue of living blurred,
Hell below obscure,
Today the sun got murdered.
The storm is coming,
Putting heaves of dead finally at peace,
Leaning in the god smiled,
He knew when his existence ceased.

Today the sun got murdered,
And no one heard it...

Premium Member Delicate Embers of Self-Immolation
Swim my world.
Under shadows havoc cry
I bend this for you, pressing onto paper, a
Caravaggio dawn falling westward.
In madness beauty born, will thee watch the
Dark machine, its gears of blood slipping through the
Eternal art of madness, of war, of silence?

No more
On the rage of things that...

Premium Member Immolation: Words From the Second
Both selves have fallen, to the drink at last,
A time to forge the third, and split anew.
The first: Too funny, fleeting dreams have passed,
Too light for purpose, upside-down yet true.

Beloved by all but self—so lost, so sweet,
Its hollow laughter echoed through the night.
The second, cold...

Premium Member Immolation: Words From the First
Both of me became an alcoholic, at last. 
Time to split into a third.

The first was too funny, not focused enough. Fun, but useless, cute but upside down; loved by all except the self; living for a dream.

The second was too scary; terrifying with empire...

Premium Member Maybe We Can Use Electrolysis Instead of Immolation
to free this specter from its host
caught in a body like bear trap
a house made of arms that can't let go
my hearth’s flame is selfish,
unwilling to part with smoke
without separation i will choke
at the memory of a pleasant smog
sewn into the wrists of silver tinged...

Self Immolation
You can destroy yourself 
When you allow emotions rule you 
Especially when you are being manipulated...

For Aaron Bushnell
Inevitably, tears of love, of sorrow,
tears that stem from my heart, flow
whenever I think of your sacrifice,
the ultimate payment of a high price.
You were a principled, brave man
who refused to budge from your plan,
one that would shake a nation, the world!
Watching the horror left my...

sixtytwosevens or AgodlessElohim
Anointed in Kerosene to confer in agony with ignited desecration of mortal flesh to bone, seared by melting anguish writhe blistering contortions through a suppressed discomfort in furious continual thresh heshers pernicious by physical immolation.
