Scorched Earth Erotica |
| Sunset, expect |
| This to be your last with Our vast return |
| As Death is set |
| At three sixes where hill-beacons burn |
| Darkness, undress |
| Your descending skirts yield a thirsting altar |
| Blood-red, yet still unfed |
| Lips distend ending time to falter |
| Welcome arms wide and crucified… |
| The slaughter |
| Lightning freezes seven |
| Outtakes from the rape of the world |
| Sins expelled from Heaven |
| Now befoul from the bowels of Hell |
| Where the tragic in theory and practice fell |
| Last prayers, hang in the air |
| Each unto their own rag and bonemeal saviours |
| Strung where crippled vultures dare |
| Golgotha |
| Coughs another cross to grave God’s failure |
| One the forest spired |
| Nurtured in Nature’s heart |
| Now great cedars feed the pyres |
| Need-fires lit for greater harm |
| As Her children toy with razors |
| Sightless and deeply scarred |
| And the moon arose to phase Her |
| Cracks a grin so wide it hides the stars |
| And lights Our path |
| Back through the shattered glass |
| Where the tragic in theory and practice meet |
| Deranged, uncaged |
| We rage like a plague through this age of greed |
| Sowers of discord, growing wars to reap |
| A terrible crop to beat a vicious retreat |
| Sorched Earth, rebirth |
| Disintered in the writhe of the lone survivor |
| Whose worth is worse than the curse |
| Of Sardonicus choking on his own saliva |
| Who shares the last laugh now |
| Dead wedded fates fulfil their vows? |
| Foot in mouth of sacred cows |
| Facedown in dust and poisened ground… |
