Seeds and Leeches

Crossing the ethereal plane
Between the pulsing of time
Phases shift states of matter violently
Colliding reality with the illusion of purpose
Variations exceed limits of perception
Dichotomies of existence witness to the deformed
Divinity of reason with a detached sense of tortured comfort
Through the presence of imbalance
Lies restraint among demand
Bound by salvation lost
At much expense carves flame on flesh
Ancient forces summon
The obstructed state of unison
Condemned to eternal contention
Engulfed by the absence of light
Traces of bliss and fury collide
Expanding distance endlessly
Creeping bane haunts that of purity
Abruptly shifting tides
(Subterfuge) All within oneself
(Delusion) Disturbing the mind
(Apparition) To heart
(Uncreation) Negating life
Dimensions cross right through the mirror
Dismembering the souls incapable of withstanding
The horrid convoluted plane of fear
Invoking cosmic chaos eternally
Ancient forces summon
The obstructed state of unison
Condemned to eternal contention
Engulfed by the absence of light
Traces of bliss and fury collide
Expanding distance endlessly
Creeping bane haunts that of purity
Abruptly shifting tides

Paradise Denied
06:07

the sun will rise like any other day
the almost limitless drapery of clouds
creeping shadows obscure luminescence
...only for a moment
I can still feel the breeze
yet it stands motionless in my memories
when did it become this way?
a viscous cycle
of denial and vengeance
brews like a storm
on the horizon
coldly gazing from lifeless eyes
a twisted fate is riddled to me
a sweeping horror engulfs my soul
...a landscape of death and decay
the lines have been drawn in the sand
to be washed away with
the purest intentions
blurring the secrets between lies
manipulating logic to form
vindicated reasoning
forever burdened by paradise denied
the greater evil presented
a hideous figure so vile
is merely the sacrificial facade
the mirage that dances with silhouettes
pulls the strings invisible to human eyes
shifting paradigms of power overwhelming
paint the world in fear and hate
obscurity claims the causation
how many more cycles must we complete?
the horizon is blinded by a tear in matter
the sky ripples unnaturally
a new age has dawned
in spectrum of
infinite contradicting realities
in silence the schism
rips through flesh and bone
disintegrated blood cells
and nerve endings vanish to dust
and in the wake of the Earth
salted beyond salvation
a new scourge unseen
taints the living far beyond death
desolation suffocates the land, sea, and air
the spherical remnants of a broken species
floating through the void
relentless permutations are revealed
sleepwalking evolution accelerates
harmonious to our demise
the culmination of rebirth
defiantly roots begin to take hold
feeding from the essence of this new
transfigured atmospheric elemental
deviations from our natural order
profoundly impact the balance
of variables to consistence
born from this congruity
a spectacle of power and abhorrence
love and empathy,
are shrouded in the absurd and obscene
desiring consecrated divinity
we reach into the unknown
wondering if something will reach back

Elliptical In Nature

by the mediums of influence
measured by ancient wounds
at the hands of animosity
the preserving of status is the game
with the tendency of pretense
tainted doses of comfort consume
critical fragments of reality
the preserving of status is the game
cynical strings provoke agendas
saving their masqueraded sins
predators creep through the gallows
counting their masqueraded sins
we are the "sons" imploding in our selves
prime motivators in time
born with the will to thrive and gain
we illuminate our structures
and parade or crowns of mastery
collapsing in satisfaction
the inward force of gravity, converts to violent emptiness
still we progress towards righteousness
populations of malignant psycho neurotics
squandering delicate mental capacities for dominance
generations of corrupted descendants
preserving diabolical ideologies for power
Bound in the belly of the beast driven by primordial aggressive forces
subconsciousness pushed to the limit
lost in the modern state
mental capacity exhausted
emotional points distorted
striving for prestigious means.
can I have the will to (forfeit)
my singularity (sacrifice)
accept my offer (solely)
to save mankind(you name the price)
degenerate fool(deviant)
you dare to make a stand (valor)
no supreme being (monarchy)
can grant you that (serenity)
iniquitous oppressor of the masses
a diminutive scope now broadened
by the unchained potential you sought to imprison
in your omniscience you have neglected
your own humanity
reflections introverted
analysis of the quantifiable conscience
obsoletion of ritualistic thought enslavement
we are no longer vulnerable to our selfish desires
animal driven conscious, lurking beneath
the surface of civilization
populations of malignant psycho neurotics
squandering delicate mental capacities for dominance
generations of corrupted descendants
preserving diabolical ideologies for power
Basic mass instinct
of human irrational animality

Transfiguring the textures of thyself
Summoning nameless souls engulfed unite
Vortex of body and mind may decline
Procession imposed, overthrow
Galvanize these empirical attachments
Denigrate what is negligent
Flow through the veins of man
In the sand lines are drawn with intent to expand
Composites separate
Disproportioned
Inner threshold builds
Semi contortion
A rigid semblance
A posture fixed
Involuntary process has endured
Automatically transfixed
Unknown forces
Have been sent to act
Immobilizing
This being must retract
Extension of substance
Mental construct absorbs
The fabrics intertwine
A haven yet explored
Coordinate, decipher the undefined
Outer decent, this venture shall not be confined
With latency continuing to propel
Dissolving into interstellar realms
Credence begins to form
Instinctual energy soars
Movement unimpeded
Departing ground
Control increasing markedly
Signaling archetypes bound
To fill a desolate void
A vision completely profound
Laws of physics encompassing
Shapeless in the wake of space and time
Crystallize the abstract monolith
Prehistoric notions of mortality
Diffuse the wave of particles
Processing sensory input is enclosed
Stream into the cosmic sea
Vacuuming through obscurity
Wandering incessantly
Exertion focused to reach new heights
