Long Gehenna Poems

I sung all the night with the Devil,
It seemed harmony had found itself spooning with dissonance
Not indeed needing to be one or the same
Yes—the light indeed could sustain itself in the midst
Of what then was...

I heard two distinct voices in the night,
Conversing amongst themselves most eagerly
They whispered like children in excitement
Their sardonic mouths sung many savvy tunes
It was Death I could perceive, defending me,
And he, a strange, distant friend
Seemed...

KNOWING LESS THAN BEFORE…

That whisper of the night before struck me powerfully, 
It affected me more than I intended to admit
Hades—stupid Hades, a follower, loyal enough—
But nothing to compare with the suicidal, lovely
Red glow of...

“I need to be inside you” . . .

His voice echoed like the psalms in my mind
And I could not shake the feeling of dread—
The dread of leaving this Prison of Plot—
And the ensured surety...

The Fallen and the Angel

The droplets from the sky
Landed on her wounded shin
That pierced through her shivering body
Like a needle intruding her skin
The scarlet eyes of hers
Peeked through her saggy blindfold
All people turned into a...

  DEVIL GO HOME- -

Whatever your name is now, get up, get out go…

NUKES
First Stanza

Clear was the day
Bright was the sun
The clouds were happy
And the skies
Azure
Beleaguered the city was an aura of serenity
Sparrows leaped towards the horizon
Into the deep heavens
The city was blissful
Its oppidan denizens did their daily...

The Parting

Exodus 14

We stand sweating and thirsty by the shore
At the setting of Ra
A setting we’ve always anticipated
Bringing a glimpse of beauty to each day of toil
Beauty now eclipsed by a plumage of fire
Baking our...

I FEEL NO BILLOW:

Obvious smile covering enormous of feelings.
Shadows on the wall tells 'bout what could be happening.
Self-isolation mobilised for a painstaking decision.
Children of destitute parents on gruesome mission;
Fantasies and fallacies boosting men for filching,
Selling...

II. Paralysis U[sic]

Shy one, shy one,
Shy one of my heart,
She moves in the firelight
Pensively apart;

Linger now with me, thou Beauty,
On the sharp archaic shore.
Surely 'tis a wastrel's duty
And the gods could ask no more.
If thou...

Oh, eternal empyrean thy thunder rumbles thru the hallucinogenic hells,
Where demons disseminate decadent deeds arising from lament…
As Angels plummet within their pandemonium’s pleasurable thirst,
The battles that lead to wars amidst a miasmatic malignant landscape…

Faithful firmament...

This is not the entity that has been touted and written about
since the times before tamed fire
It is fire, it is malevolent and for that reason it entices me
Enveloped in a shroud of rage unrelenting
Uncaring...

Ohhhh.... If only you knew just how I feel "Right Now". 
All would cease to exist in your meager life and "You" 
would come for me. 
Not even the "Underworld of Gehenna" itself could keep...

The world did wear you down and on you passed.
Nightmares of young did press your eyes to close,
But God has gathered you and him at last.

Today we mourn for you, with hearts half-mast,
Today your joy...

There are always repercussions for those who commit wrongs
Those who lie like a snake, forked tongue like deadly prongs
The evil ones who sin, who sooner or later must pay the price

THE HARD DAYS



Way to vision is full of  gloominess,
Many obstacles are hide in it like evilness,
Tremendous lightning of will power can supersede it,
Just command yourself to do it,

Sometimes circumstances are not auspicious,
Shattered hopes tell...

Head of Department of Discipline,
Manager of Correctional Intervention Division,
Follows orders from on high.

Not an independent entity,
Adversary to the Lord of all people, places, and things,
Appears as a roaring lion looking for someone to devour,
To ensnare...

First descent
had every bone crushed,
as a true descent must do.

Second descent
was of a toxin
placed neither by devil nor god.

Third descent, fourth, and beyond,
were of increasingly greater craft
and increasingly greater uncertainty.

I lay in the soil,
assimilated into

Candle, Candle, burning brightly,
Stave off shadows for me nightly.
Illuminate the dark I see,
And keep away the misery.
Fight the night that wants me dead.
Tell me that it is just in my head.
Candle, Candle, flickering dimly,
I see...

Sanctify the begriming blood that churns within my decomposing channels.
Douse my life in the distilled downpour of the holy.
Spike my transgressions to the cross. 
Let them hemorrhage in crucifixion. 
I can no longer carry the...

When the husky sound of the horns
Resounds on the edge of the universe, 
The Lamp will fight again
And don his crown of thorns.

For the last holy sacrifice, 
For the last...

Had i known; angels

Indolent my flesh

grow,
Surf in wealth of no
labour to show
Stuck to my solfa with
popcorn bowl,
Watch my polo
squeezed to no 
damp,
My belle filled with 
not
hassle.
I choose to live like
Pharaoh and his...
