The word burns in The Book,

each leaf of flesh falls in black autumn;

the throne of bones usurped

by a singularity feining divinity;

a blood paradise in rose light.

Reigning shadows stream across

the earth and slide around the blackhole maws where madness

hides in sanity.

In the trumpet blast of thunder

the mountains rock and quake

from the viciously swung sword of lightning delivering mortal blows:

a crater containing a plate of ivory

commanding war, murder, suicide -

not in the thou shalts of the antiquated elevated, but

the legislation of the vulgar

blight ridden wagging tongues of the possessed. White chapel riders

of the suited night;

cover for the writhing mass ignited with pain and prayer
