The Skies Wept Infernal
By Armand
(Armand has retired and this is a piece by his son, Jonathan)
I fell
I fell I fell
I fell again
Into the deepest darkest
ocean
From one look into your eyes
Despair
Trickles
down
From the heavenly clouds above
Your words snap the neck
of the whitest dove
Bound by the holiest vine
Be careful when
you lick your wounds
Your whore’s tongue will surely infect them
Every single word you spew
Will fertilize the crop of deception
The skies wept infernal
Across the scorched terrain
Masking
our requited tears of pain
Flowing from our eyes
The poison
Of betrayal goes straight into the hearts
Of lovers tearing
themselves apart
Until in lust they die
Be careful when
you lick your wounds
Your whore’s tongue will surely infect them
Every single word you spew
Will fertilize the crop of deception
Kiss
the poison in my veins
Watch my soul drowning in flames
Revel
in the screams of the insane
Love is just an endless shifting -
a shifting of blame
And touching the hilt of this machine
The red vines clawing out your eyes
Like a malevolent deranged
animal
The horizon is nothing but a weeping widow – beneath all
the lies
You know I fell
I fell I fell
I fell again
Drowning in the blood flowing from my skin
I hope you taste it
