Veils
Can you not escape the face?That glowing haunted stareTake the way that's caked with filthA far less travelled pathVeils of bygone grief and deathTo deflect the gazeThe sickening sightTHere is no manner learnedFrom any teacher from any sourceFrom any know-it-allFrom any keeper, from any mouthFrom anyone you knowVials of promised sunSapped of life when splendor brims a thimbleThirst to the point of madnessTo each his own demise(And) when the oldest soulPushes through your fleshAnd paints your lids whiteSubmit to more than just the lureOf the hands that held you tightSo stop everything an bring on nothingContent to sleepSongtexteIn filth or feathers(So stop everything and bring on nothing)A shiftless shapeless massWhat started out like any otherWas twisted into thisPart of the living, part of the dyingThough blood soaks through your solesAnd gusts lash your skinContinue on your wayTo a place called home
