Void

(1) 1. Blind in water, seeking out embers. Glass hands grip his hair, aquatic flames consume his speech. 2. Red purified in rubber aqueducts. It remains undone. 3. We stand watching the grin- ing corpse gleaming in white space. He screams beyond us. "I'm not here". (2) 1. "Illusions of darkness and vast halls of pain. I've cast off delusions, my body remains. 2. The pulse of your poison which keeps life intact can blind me no longer to that which is sane. 3. Our hopeless confusion enshrouded in sweet works, the lies of existence that help us to live. The mindless delusions of social convention atrophies life force along with our souls." (3) 1. Ever falling from the vision. Embracing the warm, dry mouth. He cries no more, but dances. 2. Here no more. Bound no more. Void the dust.
