Almspyre
April 16, 1995
child my child have you found your fallow ground
and child my child have you found a shallow grave to lay thee down in
a shading breeze across the crawling lawn
shiver your back a bit, dawn clover and acid bit
little one did you think the end came warm upon the warning
blessing forming a little border upon your downy cheek
a silver breeze from across the crawling lawn
shiver your back a bit
dawn clover and acid bit
these then their company lit
and these - child from hell again - child from hell with them
little one they have eaten the sun
child my child this vase your ashen eyes
and child fear not this place to scour your face away
did they smile did they smile when you found your soul was just for screaming free from
Almspyre draw your desert jaws, maw upon the blight
they grip you to them I shouldn't wonder - how they bite
close to the wound Almspyre - dawn curtained just behind your mourning Christ
child my child have you found your fallow ground
child my child did they laugh as they dragged you in
child was the drowning -- closer -- down below the sand -- bring yours
child rape your dreaming -- morture -- down below the sand -- dig your
child wreak your screaming -- virtue -- down you eat the sand -- take it child
child have you no feeling -- make you hollow -- down down -- you must feed the sand
child has the hunger pulled you down?
little one were you one of them before you could recall
a little more beyond the damned -- if so you count those lost
and little one remember clear the gore now shared -- prepare
nightmare repaired though the grave was clean
ridden within -- somehow perdition
child the answer -- the answer, my child -- came before you left the sand
child my child digged you your fallow ground -- get thee right well
and child my child was the shallow grave not enough to close you in -- get thee back well
child my child have you faced what you have won -- get thy sight well
child are you pale not only from this lack of sun and getting done -- get thy...
child are you at all what's left of the child I once made new
child my child from the fallow ground, I fear this hunger becomes you
