Come then cowled end
I await you with greater glee
wearing a crazed rigid grin
and a mind free of property
Let rip with your stained scythe
Drive it deep in my foul
A souled vexed now with life
Beckoning banshee warcries
I have no fear left in me
and spit on karmic mantras
my eyes ablaze with clotted blood
sees truth that's full of maggots
Claim all you think I had
and those snatched before me
even the concepts never formed
I hold my own with nothing
