Corpse Candle

You spat at me as we passed
With eyes shot red and glassed
And cranked your shoulders, as in shackles
clenched ready to fight old battles.
but I, not knowing, beat on my last,
a stranger now, as I, to others' passed.

and this one

-----

Shout

Shout and shout
Undo this world
Break the mountains
Break the walls
Leave level all

That I should stand above the world
Above, yet below it all
The sky, the clouds,
The stars that shroud
My nakedness, alone.

Oh man - what folly you betray?
You shout and shout and shout.

Thankyou...enjoy.

Breaking contradictions in his mind was, to him, like walking through a winter forest snapping twigs underfoot.
