This Is The Work of Fire

To be completely understood was perhaps my greatest fear—the final form of annihilation.

You arrived with the morning fires
This is the inquisition of the night
If you surrender you survive the sunrise
This is deliverance 
I am your crimson child 
Desire what wild magic
I desired the vastness 
This is the tide of light 
This is annihilation 
You arriving with the midnights 
At the promontory 
I heard death rattling 
I wanted the devastations witnessing my vastness
But I collapsed 
From death to dawn 
The wastelands 
I was committed to that vastness
This is midnight beyond exile
This is the revelry of fire
From death to dawn 
Commit to collapse 
Like fallen stars 
I heard death rattling in the satellites cities 
I wanted the devastations witnessing my greatness
This collapse
Like the stars confined to their black lanes
How do I survive this narrowing vastness
The decadence of carrion ages
We were burning suns in golden wasted ages
This narrowing vastness
This is the wasteland 
Was it disaster if it was planned?
Stigmata on your hands
I was the great darkness 
This is Genesis I was chained to the whirlwinds
Dark Cassandra 
I shouted in the clouds
I know what you are Now 
This is the tide of fire
You inside the whirlwind galaxies 
You were the night disciple before the whirlwinds before the cold moons 
Like Klimt’s kiss this devastation I witnessed as desire 
God put me in a whirlwind 
This is Genesis 
(Again) 
Me at the periphery 
These remnants of a daydream
You on me like leech to flesh 
This is Genesis 
Here in this Wilderness universe 
I still didn't like myself 
Then I heard death rattling 
This is Genesis 
You and the whirlwinds 
At the end
(Again) 
If you surrender you survive deliverance
Desire burned wastelands in me 
Drag me to dawn and dust
When I am gone do not resurrect me 
Meridian eves you die in the midnights 
Resurrect into this wasteland 
You in the whirlwind 
This is Genesis
The sunrise eating my flesh
Drag me down to dawn and dust
Do not forget me 
This is the solemn end
you in the whirlwind
This is Genesis
The sunrises eating my flesh
Drag me down to dawn and dust
this sublime violence
resurrection in flesh
this is the end
This is Genesis
(Again)
Sunrise I am your violence
Sunrise I am your decadence
