lyrics

2.8 The Impossible Planet

Before lies
there was only the ideal of dust to aspire to
and the clomping of the long driven hooves
of severed exploration
into the mists
reaching out your hand
to touch beyond your blood flow
and clasping at
coals you freeze
into the improbability
of something coarse past your brain cells

like a shard of glass in a prayer

2.9 The Satan Pit

We made stars to crack the silence ™
A low flat eternity ago
we roped horned heresy
dumping it past the event horizon
into assembly line Hells
a veritable office party
for the lull in forever
forged in cracked stars
to hush the silence of the darkness
with the screams of witchcraft
Hail, Lord of Lows
the idea of your eyes
scream fountains into the pit
black of dynasties
Lucifer of unknowable segments
of torn tatters
angel wings
that cannot fly
wrapped around lingering doubt
in the carnal heave
of carnivorous Time Lords
?(Time Gone Fly
out and about
in the wild and darkness
shadowed by choler
eclipsed by the
motion of time rotors
geared gizmos
unable to weep
for 1,000 dead sisters)?
