Long Filth Poems

{intro}
(Whisper) mmmmhmmm
Turn me on by your tranquil, no-drama-no-trauma tune

I hear your victory shout!!!

Ooooo I-I-I-I...

I had allowed her reign over me, callousing my heart,
She was inside me, laughing
Having crawled in
My walls closing, as she filled my soul
We were one, yes for a time,...

In a sudden nodding shift,
I was lifted into the air by the hard wings of the Devil
His putrid stench waking me from what seemed all dream
And upon a balcony of singed vine and blackened soot,

On the canvas of a cold, grey, winter sky,
In large black letters above the Iron Gate,

Remembering a tune sung so long ago,
A great song grieving for the incessant wars...

This train is rocking my brain

This train is the messy train
This train is filled with pain

Good night from the descending night

As I left the cape with...

"Motherland"

The “Removed”,
Charlestons across the keyboard,

fingers have a personality and a mind 
of their own, don’t you agree?
