Misery marks my days Endlessly wandering A gaunt visage returns my gaze Reflections of past mistakes Am I meant to be this waste drifting through the unknown Grasping for a purpose until meaning unfolds Stare deeply into the soul Enter the void if you seek the truth Only through discipline does pain reveal reality These rites of passage written in our biology The old and sick rots away The new will grow from the decay Kill the weak inside of me Building strength from atrophy I am not to be a waste drifting through the unknown I take command of fate to write my own Stare deeply into the soul Enter the void if you seek the truth Patience and discipline revealing ancient wisdom Esoteric spirit quest guides me to clarity So begins this book I write in the blood of my past life Reborn in the suffering Now I see who I am to be

Degenerate overlords smile upon the face of evil Let the noble corrupt the youth under the invisible eye Trade to me innocence for pleasure and imperium Profane thy pledge Your greed is my hegemony Soul sold for a taste of power from forces of the underworld Soul cold to the vile works Senses dulled to the wide eyed burned in sacrament to the fire god Blathering talking heads conceal their masters’ sins Maintain silence with the threat of violence ever present Prying eyes cut out Inquisitive minds left to wonder Don’t question, just forget while we destroy the evidence Open secret crony lies shrouded from the public eye Pierce the deceptive veil and face forced suicide Bow before the bullheaded god beckoning the sacrificial blood Arms outstretched to receive the children passed through fire Partake in the most vile deeds dealt by the merchant of depravity Hands outstretched to receive a handshake for a devil’s pact A blind eye turned to rituals perverse Sentenced to death as a burnt offering of flesh A blind eye turned as the shadows converge Sentenced to death so their secrets will be kept And when I die, who partook in Moloch dies with me

Wind whistling through the trees I hear your whispers to me From the great beyond you speak A voice alive in memory Alone I walk this path like we used to hand in hand To visit your resting place, reminisce over our past Upon reaching the clearing in the shadow of the pines I found fresh earth upturned and bloody footprints from the mound The bright midday sun grew dark blotted out by strange black clouds Frost began to form around me from an unnatural chill A stilted gait caught my eye as I turned with terror to see A pallid face with a hateful gaze echoing past beauty From the shock comes denial I could not believe what I saw Memories of your murder begin to flood into my mind Punishment for the discovery of forbidden knowledge Too terrible to be known all who see must perish violently Born of an arcane power the corpse roams Earth again Single minded hatred for me and deep hunger for revenge And with an inhuman roar she begins to advance I prepare for a battle against a certain death Swift but painful death she brings Partnered in death as two beasts rotting together always and forever

Dystopia The brave one shouts These are not empty words: Live free or die Robbed of our rights Don’t play their game Let them legislate He’ll seize back what’s ours The scales have tipped Balance of power shifts Now the despots cower from phantom arsenals rivaling their power Watch how their thrones do quake with every rifle made Iron fists tighten their grip as gun control slips away Standing steadfast Defy their laws Grind day and night in darkness to fight tyranny Showing us all that we need Are plastic, ammo, and sheer will to stay free With files spread deterrence is dispensed The ghost network gains strength Immortalized in block chain The martyr’s blood is spilled One head of a hydra that cannot be killed Restoration of power to print and build Rights that were always ours O, valiant armorer Faceless saint of freedom A patriot of the free world A hero’s life cut short Beyond the grave You live Beyond the grave
