A Single Second of Clarity

in the hole of the serpent of the abyss
a thirst and a will planted in the child-hood of man
and even before the fall, adam had given in to sin
to iniquity and dominant desires
delivering us a hunger for seperation and loss
the inner serpent is raised until we all fall blind
— and we sense the black dragon from afar!
embodied and clear when in trance of death
contained and dwelling in forbidden knowledge
for a moment here and never to be seen again!
what law is could now be deemed truth,
when reaching out even beyond the left hand of god?
oh, fools and harlots!
the wisdom herein burns far beyond comprehension
even in the most vile worship!
pathways glow in the night
abyss after abyss, and further you fall!
into the filth you stored
among distorted faces and fallen spirits
a mirror of your every struggle
you hunger, starve and long for release
drinking deep from fire and brimstone
thrusting through the darkness of luna
through black space
greedily devouring the poison
and in tunnels deep and bizarre
what you deemed triumph dissolves
further, further!
and in the loss of desire and effort
a single second of clarity
