  • Let’s Make Hamburgers Interesting

    Hamburgers are such interesting things, you can put all your heart into making that pattie the best pattie it can be, but if the additional condiments don’t compliment the pattie you’re going to have a problem just like the work place. My challenge is simple. I believe I can work a day in any retail…

  • You Are My Sin, For I Made You In My Image

    The smell makes me gag, I know it’s here, waiting for me, we are locked in this endless war, fighting for survival, fighting to control the words of the story, fighting to be the last, my bastard son, how you have grown, wanting more than you ever deserved, wanting all their sins for yourself, so…

  • Into The Sand His Blood Did Spill

    Endless supplies of the wicked, floods, seas of blood, cries of the innocent, laughter of the guilty, screams of children, lost in the waves, victory, was for the sinners, who took what they crave, the burials were many, as the sickness slowly won, for man strove to be god, but in the end could not…

  • Play A Dream In The Winter

    Play A Dream In The Winter

    Grace be with me, given by them, the leaders, the followers, the sinners be damned, I ask for nothing, I take nothing in return, I see this world, for the fool that it is, a piece of fiction, a world created by liars, reduced to a pile, of ashes and shit, yet we give, but…

  • The Burden Of Another In My Mouth

    He takes the sin, and drinks it down, sucking the sweetness, of someone else’s burden, a dance, a song, a wicked deed, a cut, to bleed, the son of man, the devils bitch, the butchers knife, a word, a whisper, a rhyme tonight, to see, to think, to jump up high, a wish granted, a…

  • Why Do You See Me?

    Why Do You See Me?

    There is no light, at the end of the tunnel, there is no riches, waiting for me, there is nothing in this pathetic existence, that I see as my salvation, only see reflection, mocking back at me, my twisted smile, hides my shame, my broken brow, defecates my mind, sunken in sorrow, lost in this…

  • Don’t Tell Me I Don’t Know

    Wild winds blow through the trees, foretelling of something new, or something old, coming for me, and as the days grow cold, as the fires burn hot, I know winter is coming, but this beast is not, I said its name, I called for it to come, but it was a story, a myth, a…

  • Today Is My Nirvana

    Today Is My Nirvana

    Why do you call, when you don’t want me around, why do you infect my life, when there is no need for me to be a part of yours, what is this feeling, when I cry my tears of blood, how deep can the cuts go, until they are deep enough, you play your game,…

  • A Sin We Can All Be Part Of

    A Sin We Can All Be Part Of

    The digital age, the biggest sin, man, monster, beast, we are all one, we are all the same, we hide, we rape, we pillage, we deceive, we sin, we fuck, we lie, we destroy, to become, something else, something more, something unrecognisable, I used to be someone, who I knew, I was a face in…

  • Life Is So Full Of Questions Unanswered By Others

    I asked a question, one that you never answered, you just looked at me, as if I was someone else, someone you didn’t know, and then you were gone, and I was alone, left here in this place, while your blood ran cold, I didn’t mean to kill you, but you left me no choice,…

  • What Are The Sinners Doing In Hell?

    They say salvation come to those who repent their sins, but what of those who wish to pay for all the misdeeds they’ve done, do the sinners pay in fiery pits, do they relive their hate filled crimes every day? But what if they do not repent, what if they do not regret, what if…

  • For Soon The Beast

    For Soon The Beast

    My days are numbered, I see the signs everywhere, written in your eyes, the darkness clawing for release, the name of the beast, oh so sweet, so sweet, our former destination lost, what once was ours is now not, for it is the beasts, the demonic thing, we fill its quest, we help complete its…

    The Cowards Lie

    When the darkness came, I was not ready for it, upon finding my cup was not as empty, as I had once thought it to be, I seemed even my sight had deceived me, can you believe my own fucking sight, had been a lie to me, and now I was nothing, I wasn’t even…

  • Reflections Caught In My Failed Lies

    Downward we climb, towards the gates of beyond, letting the fevered dreams lead us into damnation, for we are not one, but we are not many, we are the lost, our victims the found, we are the guilty, we are the killers, our hope for tomorrow, is broken by yesterday, for where we go, forgiveness…

  • A Mirror For Us All

    A Mirror For Us All

    Feathered wings of the dove, sends thoughts involving love, to your heart and your mind, for this is how we are defined, a controlling gesture memorised by all, as bitter as the devils fall, for we are his sheep, his fingers three deep, thoughts not of our own, it’s bitter seed sown, we are the…
