dear poltergeist

dear poltergeist
     as I compose this letter to you
   I am tired
       but you are not

          my enemies have come for blood

      they cheer for I will soon die



          my god hides his face from me


       I am tired

          but you are not
for you are beyond all sleep
    and you live through death

    and in this moment I accept
that you will never leave

      so live through my death
   I will reject you no longer
       you are always welcome in my home

          make your noise
     fill this earth with your fear
  scrape flesh as you have scraped my walls

        thrash about 

     throw earth and bones as you have done to the chandelier
        you are free to
    topple my enemies as you have toppled my urns

         give them no sleep
    shake
       thrash about
      you conduct the drums of war
  for you orchestrate victory over the great silence of Death

      and afterwards, you shall knock on the door
   and you shall not knock twice

      for the door is open

          celebrate

      

       scream for joy
             show them your dance


         make your noise


      make them know

             let them know


            you make the sound

     they make the silence

            you will not be denied



           let them know

    only you shall stand

         sound the drums of victory 

thrash about


           let them know



         



                        you live


                                                 













                                           I AM HERE


                                              YOU SHALL THRASH ABOUT WITH ME
WE SHALL LIVE AS BROTHERS

                   SING 
 
          DANCE 

                SCREAM

 BREAK BONES

TOPPLE WALLS

          SCRAPE FLESH

      YOU SHALL NOT SLEEP

        YOU SHALL AWAKEN

FILL THIS EARTH WITH YOUR WRATH


          CELEBRATE

     LET THEM KNOW


            YOU ARE THE ONE WHO KNOCKS
YOU GIVE THEM NO SLEEP

    YOU SHALL LIVE
        AND THEY SHALL FALL SILENT



                  NOW..... 

SING!!!!
