After Me, The Flood

Haggard hand
Your holy land
Is storm drain streets
When deluge speaks
When the flood comes for it's owner
Made of time but not of closure
Drowning in the possibilities
Laid out ahead of you
Always looking out for number one
A shallow-sighted view
The sky's a wayward vessel
That culled it's disarray
Then swelled to fill its own expanse
and birthed a thunderhead
Never the same
a thousand-thousand names
Asinos, Episkopos
The dweller trawling the abyss
For a name his own
When the flood comes for it's owner
Made of time but not of closure
Drowning in the possibilities
Laid out ahead of you
Always looking out for number one
A shallow-sighted view
I don't pretend to know me
This fire inside's still burning
I spent forty days of yearning
Calcifying songs of blame
And here I thought you'd know
Oh, that Aqua Vitae stronger
Than anything I'd find outside myself to numb away
That sulfur bursting out of me
To light a fire in the rain
A voice of flame to tame the
Sinking cities washed away
When the flood comes for it's owner
Made of time but not of closure
Stand against the tide and decide
Where to spend the rest of your time

Liquid Lush

He holds a wake
For his day
Forever lying in wait
Sow seeds of gold where they'll grow
Before you know you're mowing them down
What you need's digital soma
Clockwork Haoma
Time doesn't slow for you
Just slips away
Head underwater
Thinking circles
Some liquid lush would warm you up
And see it through to the bitter end
At one with the crowd so apathetic
You're only lying to yourself
Sucking up the breath like Wim Hof
Stiff as stone like Alan Watts as I
Till the soil 'til the day ends
Something churning in my attention
Hand in the fire
Holding out for
Some liquid lush to warm you up
And see it through to the bitter end
At one with the crowd so apathetic
And lacking focus on your goals
So glad to have joined the machine
Indulging in current events
Orchestrated by a framework that's built on hate
Homogenize everything grey
Watch it evolve in a day
Temporal-memetic entity
Into the labyrinth with me
An alchemy made up of XYZ
Linked to the sabers that your
Rattling in your head
Imbibe the dulcet dram
That's gripping to your hand
Makes any time of day a little bitter
Only better
Gravity is a time machine
And the weight of the past is holding onto me
That steadfast unbending arrow dies
If not transcended by
A mind that chooses life
