A warm, pulsating heart
In your tender palms?
With the eyes of divinity
Casting down their woeful gazes
On the still-breath calm.
I have a n'er-ceasing flow
Of this divine energy
At my disposal.
Yet they have an arsenal
Of gaseous bile.
They will strip your soul
Clean of purity
And replace it with the mildew
From bathroom tiles.
Have they already reached you?
Reached your weakness?
Will you admit them
In to your theatre of mortal imbalance?
I found a ticket stub on strange soil.
It read: Admit won.
Will the will of your sweet soul win?
Or will the will of sin?

Mortal Theatre

Do you wish to hold
A warm, pulsating heart
In your tender palms?
With the eyes of divinity
Casting down their woeful gazes
On the still-breath calm.
I have a n'er-ceasing flow
Of this divine energy
At my disposal.
Yet they have an arsenal
Of gaseous bile.
They will strip your soul
Clean of purity
And replace it with the mildew
From bathroom tiles.
Have they already reached you?
Reached your weakness?
Will you admit them
In to your theatre of mortal imbalance?
I found a ticket stub on strange soil.
It read: Admit won.
Will the will of your sweet soul win?
Or will the will of sin?
The only way in...

Well I have no idea why this poem has no comments, for i thought it was cool, written with gorey effienecy, and painted a vivid picture of the daily struggles many of us face...Sweet poem, well worth the read, cheers for sharing a positively cool talent to mezmerize.
