Annihilation

Annihilation

A Poem by Morgan Ashire
"

Lyric for my old band, Godsendeath, but also one of my favorite works. Could be interchanged with "Supernatural/Occult," and "Religious."

"

-When all life ceases to be and death bestows his presence amungst the ruin and rubble of what once was, when there is nothing left to be gained and all is already lost to the insatiable fires of destruction and genocide, there is nothing left to be faced, but annihilation.-

 

The graveyard cracks as flesh is revived.

The solemn miasma hangs by its side.

The awakened emerge from the resting they've earned.

There's no man or beast that can safely discern

The power they witness before their eyes.

Struck blind by the face of the god they despise.

 

Cower in fear as the undead rise.

This day is my rapture, bleeding your lies.

Sacrificed blood is the payment that hides

The shadow of truth, behind your disguise.

 

Baptized in blood, the blood of the lamb,

Slaughtered with purpose, rightfully damned.

This army of anguish sent to destroy

All that you covet. This deadly envoy,

As pure as an angel, yet tainted by hate,

Is sent with a mission. Annihilate.

 

Run from this hate filled deity.

Run from imminent tragedy.

Witness destruction of this earth.

Annihilation from it's birth.

 

Let the blood of the martyrs spill upon these grounds.

Hm. Violent? Yeah. Dark? Sure. However, being a fan of Lordi, I cannot deny the talent you have in word usage and grammar. Most lyrics of this sort, frankly, suck, but you successfully captured the feeling of classical pieces like Mozarts Requiem. Look that up one day, the Dies Irae in particular.

I loved it. Also, read my poem Shadow. You might like it.
