My body hasn't known rest in weeks I cannot sleep until it's complete Ingredients come to me inside a waking dream I collect forms as they come to me First a mother, then vagabond, and king Then a child who isn't old enough to speak A stray dog, a bird, little crawling things Ready to become more, the Psalms they quietly read Deconstructed So much more than the sum of their parts They become one A body with 15 hearts I gave it a pair of wings Formed from flesh from its chest cavity On its throat I formed several holes So it never has to open its mouth to sing Spiderlike appendages sprout all around Protruding ribs like spikes to heaven Fingers and teeth have formed a crown Instead of eyes just two depressions A pit in its stomach, a place of worship Ideal to drop your offerings Filled with blood of faithful servants And whatever the foreign pilgrims bring After Eve consumed the apple A being in constant agony Like Michelangelo painting the Sistine chapel I know how much this holy work means Only venture deep into Cimmerian forests All of his children to be welcomed disciples Leading benefactions with untouched vitals Into the hands of his devoted apostles Sealing the bond in sanguinary ritual For both to taste and consume from his bosom For he is loving and shares all his victuals A new god, a just god, and not just a simulacrum Like the old gods before him He was man made But he will bring even more bliss and suffering We will all drink from the well So do not be dismayed Feeling his warmth and affection We will all begin to oscillate Can you hear him? He is calling Discordant hymns within his voice The earth below is breathing Heaven is here we can rejoice
