GODLESS

I will not feed the kings

I will not grovel for the priests

We are not the same

I know the crime of your birth

The toll of your life upon the earth

You are meat

I am carnivore

BRUTE

Ware the night

The line be drawn,

I know not friend or foe

I am loveless

Blackest pitch

The life-consuming cold

I will not balk

Nor make it swift

I live to bleed your soul

To chew upon your jellied eyes

Where pain is all you’ll know

When pain is all you know,

Call upon your god of light

To grant you mighty arm

Sacrifice and supplicate

To keep you safe from harm

When you’re bloated

Ripe with hope

Your blood runs bright and true

The beating heart pulled from your chest

I’ve bitten clean in two

You know me

I am justice

I am the answer

To the cries

Of the world

No regret, no remorse
