During this time of immortality I encourage you to employ pain
I can feel your nihilism so I ask that you close thy eyes and oblige
Charon to illuminate cells of your isolation that kept you a slave
Together we can revisit those years you spent alone in darkness
Permission has been granted to lick buried wounds my child
It’s crucial they realize the treachery they have bestowed on you
The powers I possess will assist you in the opera of prosecution
Summon the forgotten angels and cast them into shadow play
From hell they creep with talons drawn ready to scalp the wicked
Take my hand as a god and control the table of guilty crowns

23 hours left…
Do we have a deal?

Hi Duff,
I always enjoy reading your work,it's always thought provoking and written in a style that is so different to everything else on here.
'nihilism' what a great word had to get the dictionary out for that one!

The darkness cast here is blatant and malignant as it should be
this passage is the devil's anthem
if ever there was one,
full of images that chill the air and numb the sense's
artistcally elite, poetically black
outstanding!
