Three Poems From Purgatory

I cant be in my own body

I try to escape myself

But my bones are prison bars

And my eyes are broken windows.

I want to be free of my mortality.

I want to cease to exist.

And remain

            A dream.

Depression is just a word until you have felt it.

A smile is just a twitch if you don’t know what it means.

Bring me back to a more simple existence,

Or

            Make

                        Me

                                    God.

Nature times two,

Mother and Human,

We exist beyond this dimension

In the color schemes of the old era.

We were forged long before eternity began.

Our former masters are now our gods.

As the temple makers,

We would wail as our backs are slashed.

As the new world emerges

We are on bended knees praying for mercy

A diseased growth of flesh on my throbbing temples

And sweat begins to bead on my forehead,

As the plague of god begins to possess me.

BOW!

TO THE GODS!!!

Let their wrath break your spirit.

Let their hells and purgatories

Become your every day parades.

Will you let yourself be smitten by

The hand of Bal?

Which circle of Dante’s hell

Do you belong to?

Falsify your gods!!!

Break your gods!!!

Become your gods!

~~

I am caught in my solipsism

And I cant function behind this belief

That this is all we have.

Even if that is the only truth.

I am starting to look at the world

On a molecular level.

Making my existence

Meaningless.

Who

            Are

                        We

            Now

Then?
