The order
all that ruled here
in sacrifice
in pain
Terrible monsters
the darkness looms
blood demanded
violent gloom
cage is filled
screams are heard
and yet silence ensues
like madness
creeping
slinking
beneath our feet
and you can't see
or feel
or hear
as the knife cuts
blood pours
the blurred mask of doctors racing
around and around
twisting
like tangled intestines
around in your skull
empty and lifeless
Like a corpse
without a thought
twitching
painless
nothing
