Corner of nowhere and insanity,
wrapped in obsidian and vanity,
I take the pathway less chosen.
It's an obscene price we pay,
when our eyes turn away,
while others lay dead and frozen.
Within the winds, earth and fire,
it is my burning desire
to put all evil asunder.
Filled with intent,
on my knees, bent,
I pray corruption turns to wonder.
Dry up like a drought,
or bleed itself out,
never to be seen again.
Maybe when "crunch" hits the top,
this madness will stop,
and healing will began.
