TO ASSAULT THE VERY VAULT OF HEAVEN
THROUGH A THICK BANK OF FOG

TO HAVE THE SKIES FILLED WITH FLAMES AND DRIPPING
AND THE RIVERS AND THE GUTTERS WITH BLOOD

ALLIED WITH THE DARKNESS
IT SEEMED LIKE A FORM OF DEATH
AN ARMY DROPPING INTO THE ABYSS
SITE OF VAST BUTCHERY
STRUCTURAL DESOLATION
DOWN INTO THE CHASM

INDULGE ME IN SILENCE

DRIPPING INTO THE ABYSS
AS SLOWLY ONE RUN
WHEN ONE’S HEART WAS RACING SO MUCH FASTER
ASCRIBED INNOCENCE AND DECENCY
WHEN WE SHOULD HAVE SEEN DUPLICITY AND INIQUITY

INDULGE ME IN SILENCE

MURDEROUS FUCKERS WITH LONG KNIVES
FEVER OF SUSPICION
IN THE DARKNESS OF A PIT
I COMMAND AND BESEECH

TO ASSAULT THE VERY VAULT OF HEAVEN
THROUGH A THICK BANK OF FOG

IN THE DARKNESS OF A PIT
I COMMAND AND BESEECH
