Rising
Monks that chanted clung to bells that firmly standeth
With such clamor, forced with swinging, and a ringing no longer cometh dreams of angels singing
So the hissing sickle to the wheat and the servants that did plead
A harvest that was promised now a hallmark mephitic an alarmed
Signifying the delusion of mass conformity’s inclusion
And with a pair of eyes upon that old unquestioned effigy, I sat at the corner of cathedrals planted and blurring into perigee
Falling
Beneath the beaten path of stamped hooves above the dirt and grass, your days are like years and my years your days—the drying mud the roof of graves
To delay the drapery of the mantle, the maiden in her crimson garb did handle such trembling hands as sunbeams kissed her broken fingers
Inside the fortress where thine Superman lay dead, in a tomb, a cold deep abyss never ending with its rearing head
Beheld the dawn galloped through the foggy wall, and so the voices that once kept you and rendered you at all, supposed a treatise begging for you once for all
Pulling Up
The son would not die, despite the three day bite of the cold breath of winter, and the father had sent three kings to ensure the success of life but with a sigh
And so I set out and descended aback the beast—my downward spiral, holding firmly eyes wide open, clenching teeth as blood did pour
At the bottom I beheld him and I leaped for knew I must
I did trust my desperation as I heard my body aching with a dying and a crying never more
My hands clamped about his neck and gasped and grunted with much begging he did plead and although there were no thirty pounds of silver, I would do it again and again
For Free
