But our devices will falter somewhere, someday

THE BLOODY TOWER

I am so trapped a phantom princess, on an ethereal plain, spiritually
Forgotten in isolation's domain, in hell's chamber of brick and mortar,
In this imprisonment of the unjust, I'm the innocent accursed, in England's
Bloody...

Torn by the lies of the past
Of the future
Of the present 
Shredded by the mocking faces

and haunted by
holographic images gelled
that didst silently scream herald

where bludgeoned ghastly

eons of...

to your eternity.
Eternally, flowing along,

Created powers like Hercules and Socrates
Worshiped among the largest part
Brightened with a halo deity

But an emblem of being a Sanctity.
Never addressed the idol in reality
Still beliefs...
