Bilingual
There is a style in total denial
A certain elegance of fear
Hesychasm is so much convenient
With the desert within ourselves
Stray dogs lead disciples of Oedipus
As the shrouds gently cover
Exquisite paroxysms of ruin
And well mannered choking on nothingness
Nether
Nether
The cracks in soma
Psyche and pneuma
Are as one-way mirrors
It's one well-lit desert
And the pyres extend
Beyond the horizon
And cold flames flicker
Upon ashes of hope
Through hallways carved in a crystal
Onto the uttermost parts of the pit
Jostling through cadavers
Of former selves
You would swear there's amusement in the eyes of the dead
Again
Nether
Again
Nether
Nether
A reward for the perseverant
Unceasing howling of the heart
Bound to walk this path
Nether
Again
Nether - now and forever
I wish it was classic fire and brimstone
But clearly, there is a very special plan
Paved with havoc and shattered virtues
As if there were any other paths
With every dream
The pyres grow taller
An enemy of trust
A misled scholar
Stray philanthrope
In vain endeavor
Walk this path
Now and forever
