Holy Matrimony.


IS THIS NOT HOW THINE’S CHOIR WILL SING

WHEN THEY ASCEND FROM THE HEAVENS?!

WHEN THINE BLEEDING EYES ROT

AT THE SIGHT OF SUCH HOLY LIGHT

WILL THIS NOT BE HOW THEY WILL INFORM US

OF OUR SO IMPENDING AND INESCAPABLE FATE?!

WILL GOD NOT LOOK DOWN UPON HIS CREATIONS

BLESSED BE CASTING A BLINDED EYE

TO ALL THE WRONGDOINGS OF MAN HIMSELF?!

 

BLESSED ANGELS ARE CALLING OUT

HEAR THINE WAVES PASS THROUGH THE AIR AS THEY BURST THOUST EARDRUMS

HOLY SOUND NOT MEANT TO BE HEARD

HOLY LIGHT NOT MEANT TO BE SEEN

CAST AWAY THY SHAMELESS EYES, GREEDY

LEST THINE EARDRUMS BLEED AND WITHER,

THINE EYES BOILED AND LIQUIFIED,

GREEDY SENSES CATCHING HOLINESS NOT MEANT FOR THOU

SINFUL PIGS HOPING THINE HANDS WILL NOT TAKE THEM TO THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE

WILL NOT BRING UNTO THEM DEATH

BUT THOU IS BLINDED BY SUCH INCESSANT HOPES

SUCH SINFUL DREAMS

THOU WILL NOT JOIN THY HOLY CHOIR

THE ANGELS THAT SING ABOVE FROM THE CLOUDS

HOLINESS IN WHOLE

THINE’S SOUL WILL BE CLEANSED, BUT SINS NOUGHT FORGOTTEN BY GOD

JUDGED ON JUDGMENT DAY

BY THY’S HOLY HAND ITSELF

 

SCREAMS NOT MEANT FOR THE CHOIR OF LIGHT

SINS FORGOTTEN BY MAN

BUT NOT BY GOD

THINE’S SOUL CONDENSED INTO SIN

SUCH PLAGUE THREATENING TO INFECT THINE VERY ANGELS

BUT WILL THIS NOUGHT BE HOW THINE’S CHOIR WILL SING?!
