How
When you’re burnt out
Late for repentance
Now
Late to regret
Helpless you
Are
You failed your mission
You killed the time bestowed
Look at the blurred shards of glass
Hopes you buried alive
No one has noticed this
Sacrifice
You failed your mission
You killed the time bestowed
Gardens you carefully grew
Never bore fruit for you
You’ve been exploited through
Don't you see?
Wake
Up
Never perceived real world from inside
Falsified
Trapped in a whirl of recursions disguised
As daylight
Those neon signs
Dazzling lines
Souls being sold behind
A viper smiles
Toxic spines
Pierced through the skin
To enslave
You’re slave, he’s slave, we’re fucking slaves there
Dare
Don’t just stare
Rage
Free your rage
Right
Now
Shake that
Break that
Set what you’ve created
Ablaze
And don’t let them
Avail
Wipe out
Rise up
Burn up
Set what they’ve established
On fire
And don’t let them
Put out
Show your pride
Your trembling limbs
May speak for themselves
All your attempts are vain
Illusions beclouding guileless mind
Ominous visions I denied
The world seemed to shatter in a flash
--Ash to ash
Will you hear my voice through dust
Justice sheds tears red from rust
Count to ten
--Close your eyes
Tool of the system

Some fish are small,
In shallow waters they live,
Tremble and crawl,
Glad with the crap they achieve.
I’ve never been
Satisfied with what I’ve seen.
Dared to change
Reality.
Sun’s never been
So bright,
Its shine dizzying like wine…
Icarus flew
So high…
Flash of fame costs much.
Sea’s never been
So dark,
Its depth sucking inside.
Feathers and wax –
A spark
Ignited to fade.
Shaping mundaneness like clay,
Transfigurating tomorrow’s decay
Into a better space –
Crazy idea hacked into my mind’s database.
My vehemence is wild,
Fierce beast roars inside:
Like she-bear I defend my brainchild.
Clear the way!
I am crushing the bounds of today.
Sun’s never been
So bright,
Its shine dizzying like wine…
Icarus flew
So high…
Flash of fame costs much.
Sea’s never been
So dark,
Its depth sucking inside.
Feathers and wax –
A spark
Ignited to fade.
They’re strangling me.
Could they just leave
Me be?
Why can’t they
Just leave
Me be?!
My dismay shows through
X-ray.
There’s no way
To break away.
Thoughts being squeezed
By frames,
No escape,
That’s the end of the tape.
Soul suffocates
In flames,
Gasps for air,
Plunges more in despair.
No way to regain
Feathers scorched away.
Daydream, where are you?
All around has acquired,
All around has acquired,
Sordid hue.
Ardor, where are you?
All around has acquired,
All around has acquired,
Putrid hue.
Instead of wings
My back is now strewn with spikes.
Envenomed pins
Pierce fading heart, and evil smiles.
One, two, one, two –
Set off for you.
Three, four, three, four –
Knock on your door.
Five, six, five, six –
Greet your eclipse.
I’ll come for each of you.
No.
No mercy.
No regrets.
I’m
Evilized.
What I feel now?
I crave for vengeance.
You’ll all pay
For what you’ve done to me.
Go and pray
To get a respite.
You know,
I’m
I’m
Just
Dying.
I’m just a madman.
I’m…
Don’t listen to me.
It’s over.

When I was five I was told,
Equal we are before God.
Dreams of heroes and knights.
Momma’s sweet lullabies.
I wish the world knew no sorrow,
No vultures threatened my sky.
I wish “examples to follow”
Didn't cover up by white lies.
Close your eyes,
See no evil.
(But I see)
Cover ears,
Hear no ill.
(I’ve tried)
Shut your mouth,
Speak no vicious.
(Wish I could)
Put your trust
In my hands.
I pulled the cable out,
Sweet pill I couldn’t live without.
Could the matrix change as desired,
No one would ever die.
I wish my life were not hallow,
Wish I had nerves to defy.
I wish those “ruling tomorrow”
Laid bare their fake alibis.
Close your eyes,
See no evil.
(But I see)
Cover ears,
Hear no ill.
(I’ve tried)
Shut your mouth,
Speak no vicious.
(Wish I could)
Never cheat
Me again.
Ignorance’s bliss,
Face it.
Binds you deny
Run deep through your nerve cells..
Shields created for your bliss
Obscure
Abyss.
Walls erected to eclipse
The world’s
Disease
Won’t let the evil in:
Razor-sharp jaws,
Venomous claws.
Decided to submit?
Nothing to shame.
(Lie)
Don’t make the mistake
I make.
Don’t make the mistake
I make.

Decrowned

I’ve gone to
A shabby hut
Hidden in the woods.
Inside of it
A woman baked
An apple pie:
“Darling, have a bite
And you’ll find
What they veil”
I taste
Rotten lie
With each bite
I try…
Though now I
Cannot shout,
Truth will out
Some day…
I took my way
Deep to the ocean
(Its welcome wasn’t warm).
Fought its grey
Commotion
(Its mighty waves, its blazing storm).
Someone whispered
My name –
Whether fish have
Voice?
Took at face value
Mermaid’s tales,
But her kiss
Was double-tongued.
I taste
Rotten lie
With each bite
I try
Though now I
Cannot shout
Truth will out
Some day
Two-faced
Crawling semi-snake,
Keeping answers in sagacious eyes,
Your omniscience
Makes me freeze
Hypnotized.
Am I right
(Yes, you’re right)
That they lied?
(Yes, they lied)
Once again
This guessing game
(This goddamn game)…
Now I’ve had enough.
Look at me,
Liar,
Don’t you see:
Though now your thousand heads feel might,
Get ready for fight,
My sword craves to bite.
You mock at my searching,
Sneer at my restless mind.
Who do you think you are?
Why do you think you’re right?
One day you’ll be decrowned.

In the maze of voids and spirals
I unwind
A phantom thread.
Ariadne’s gift, though precious,
Disappears
Once I look back.
Oddly creepy is the night.
Sense’s been left behind.
Warmly dancing guiding lights
Softly fade
Away.
Meet the newborn world.
In this set of chess
All kings are pawns.
Tearing skies apart
Grimly rises
Scarlet dawn.
In the maze of voids and spirals
I unwind
A phantom thread.
Ariadne’s gift, though precious,
Disappears
Once I look back.
Local valleys are red,
Densely dotted with poppies,
Each splitting to twin
Copies.
Land of reflections,
A mirror
Awry.
Where am I?
I knocked at a thousand doors:
Silence day by day,
Silence day by day…
To admit at last: “It seems I’ve lost
The way”.
If only somebody could wake
Me up
From that
Delirious dream.
A stranger misguided
By curves of life,
Who now
Seeks way out.
I’d open my eyes…
(Oh no!)
If I had no fear…
(Hold on!)
If I had no doubt
(Damn it!)
That I am sleeping at all.
(Morning’s come.)

Chasm We Are In
03:17

I’m led astray.
I’m blind.
In the blue flame
Dreams are dying.
I’m still alive.
Archive
All the traces of me.
Bittersweet self-deception…
It both caresses and bites
My tongue, my palates, sensors and vibes.
My
Fractions,
Shards of me…
Forcing through maze of mental remains,
Self-annihilation down to neuron chains:
Let delirium make its way,
It’s already spreading through veins.
Vain attempts to fight dissipation
Deepen the chasm you are in.
Faceless
Nameless
Substance.
This is what you are.
Nihil.
Nemo.
I’m led astray.
I’m blind.
In the blue flame
Dreams are dying.
I’m still alive
Archive
All my shadows.
You’re a black-petalled rose
Grown through mud and clay.
You’ve lost all your beauty,
All your flavor
Through the way.
Too weak to oppose
Decay.
Burning, wrenching,
Violent, fists-clenching,
Frantic, ecstatic
Strive to survive.
“You reap what you sow…”
God knows, I tried!
What did you reap?
“Don’t go with the flow…”
Hell knows, I tried!
What did you reach?
Your heart was supplanted
By marble only to find –
Seeds you planted were
Empty inside.
Your heart was supplanted
By marble only to find –
Seeds you planted were
Empty inside.
Life was an endless way
Down.
