.:Satan's Rifle:.

every night
shotguns spray my mind
with satanic bullets
shattering my bones
flesh, blood, beliefs
shadows, shells, and the masks i made

these brave deceptions
behind four cold hard walls
so thin, flaky, transparent
like a skeleton's vain attempt
to hide the heart inside,
carried out by ugly daemons
with no more freedom than myself

an endless steel chain
presses tighly around my leg
leaving a permanent imprint
and binding me to a distant guillotine
seven stages away
as my soul grimaces
with a grave countenance
somewhat ghostlike in appearance
almost entertaining
if not for its grasp on each breath
or the way it sucks my life away
in a vain attempt to exile itself
from my mind..

frightening is the fashion
i have torn my own flesh from bone
and my soul from its heart inside
as i lie here half awake
in a hallucinogenic trance
four limbs sprawled out
shaking on the floor
and each chained
shred apart at the joints
one to each wall
-one for each chamber.
