 So he took His place before the firewall
 Of dissonant choirs whose faith in one
 Was embraced in this wraith whose fate was hung
 
 Between forgiveness and the damage done
 
 An electric scent over drear decay
 Lent a violent surge to their serenades
 Through white glades as His winged parade
 Bent to silhouette and to sharpen dull razors
 
 Within vast skies unversed in starkness
 His might grew
 And blew light hues to grey...
 And worse, a third of stars to darkness
 
 Then thunder seethed
 And wreathed in thickening night
 A line was drawn midst wrong and right
 And across the throat of thieves
 
 As love fell choked, the tempest broke
 From Heaven's farthest shore
 Descending to eclipse all hope
 Repentance might stay holy war
 
 He would not heel nor fake a bow
 Murmur curses to the wind
 Enraged, he raved in balrog howls
 Upon a storm firstborn of sin
 
 Incensed anew, rebellious tore
 Like frenzied beasts of prey
 Through temple doors...
 Thrown east before the midnight masses
 
 And where once bliss reigned so serene
 In sweeter glades
 Now veins ran openly...
 Like eyes that shed from kindred ashes
 
 When suddenly
 There shone a hideous light
 And a voice like three insanities
 Soared up in thistled speech
 
 "Thou hast bred hate where there dwelt none
 And for this grave mistake
 How thou art fallen Morning Sun
 The proud will be abased"
 
 He would not heel nor fake a bow
 Murmur curses to the wind
 And lo, the wrath of god swept down...
 
 "Thou art no more an angel filled
 With light, but a leech to be abhorred
 And thou shalt suffer My burning will"...
 Quoth this raven: "Nevermore"
 
 Nevermore
 
 And with these words like heavy stone
 Cast against that gilded throne
 With many legions still in tow
 He turned his wings to flee
 His eyes a picture of distaste
 Drawn to tears and in their place
 The dawn of time and fates to face
 Through all eternity...
 
 I wept for him a deep red river
 That ran like blood through scarred ravines
 To sluice away the guilt that slithered
 Like a serpent tongue to Eve
 For once as I, in heaven climbed
 Too high for truth to truly see
 My sunken mind, drunken and blind
 Saw the lie: The fool was Me...
 
 Alone and cold, face to the crack
 Beyond the dark gates with no way back
 His crown of gold faded to black
 Like a bruise upon the heart that lingers
 
 With thrill-kill culture shock wave lengths
 Of rope to hang high
 Ten commandments by...
 Snaked about his upraised fingers
