City on the Edge of Sorrow, Chasing Better Tommorow *version 2*
"Place where everything has to be borrowed,stripped naked and baked"
Something new, something secret, build very different
many hungry eyes constantly thinking silently about this distant prize
they are measuring, taking size
wondering if they can catch eluding prize
floating there, waiting to be taken
abducted and raped
this city feels a bit greedy for such a lovely place
another deadly case
a mutiny on this boat looking for a new coat
new paint that aint
new “bellowed” saint…
limits of this city don’t look pretty
These days all is a deadly affair
filled with much strange luggage
filled with ugly and rotten cabbage
Evil is constantly-changing hands
looking for even dirtier plans
sanity has fallen to the ground
hearts and minds are bound
bound to a silent killer
looking for an ungodly thriller
There are talks about a truce
looking for the last confused goose that is set loose
to change the current flow of evil
to catch this elusive devil
that don’t wanna be found
, don’t wanna be bound
To the unspoken law in this city
that wants to look pretty
Politicians are faul magicians
Their record is very well known
behind them, death is born
Earth is scorn, lives are torn
whole life itself is scold
put in a simple box sent to Fort Knox
sent to die without delicious pie
A sense of decency is set apart
with one hit of well-aimed Darth
Now this lovely city, doent’t look so pretty
this mirage needs input of courage
a new endurance, that will break this mold and won’t be sold
for a few lousy shekels, turn into ghastly speckles
at this point, anything will do
to kill this strange thing called a black goo
amalgamation filled with dead voices
that travels with strange penetrating noises
looking for a sinner to make his mind thinner
raised from the deadly, sick bed, this Thing
has successfully sailed to the West
Killing The soul of the West it is coming for the rest
looking for the juicy, red crest, wanting to be the best,
, set apart from the rest
catching the runaway train, for aimless gain
seeds of pain, with an infectious aim
perusing this lost, now seriously damaged brain
if you take this ugly twin your life will be filled with dark sin
it is not a fling but a deadly “Thing”
Love can be lost at any cost
all pinpoints on this new emerging dot
This field of energy was born in this darkness
to save this ungodly hour, without a build date
savior of human fate
this drawing boat, this city of lost souls
desperately needs a new fresh coat
this city needs a new definition, new ammunition
new magnetic pole to make him whole
Flashes of light to turn this tide
a new and beautiful, innocent bride
who will not step aside
with her tender lips, this reality flips
Flower born in the gutter, a new strange form of life
that doesn’t adore the dark power of flame and pyre
Doesn’t show love for the old and reckless, dying empire
eternal swire for humankind
lost in this chasm filled with sins
horrors bound by ugly twins
New energy takes over, instantly hits the places like London and Dover
all that is faulty and ill is looking for the closest cover
Sins are washed away, all that moments ago was just a tragic prey
that could not be swayed, obeys
Penetrating light hits the bleak ground,
the city shakes, new destiny takes over
all moves to the future even closer under the force of new dazzling, mesmerizing power
True reality forms, creating a new set of norms
Finally, the dark city is filled with light
no more struggle, no more fight
This city is on the edge of tomorrow
looking for the last soul to borrow
looking for the clear weather
to do future things better
Beast is laid to rest, it was just a test
holographic picture, another lecture
another vivid bad dream, taken from the broken sea filled with screams
dreamer comes to his senses, he is no more defenseless
reality bow to his will
an unimaginable thrill
our world is subdued by his force
he proudly says…
Of course!
It was all a bad dream a foul stream
I am home,
A few days will be enough to put in order my usual stuff
the divine force will be replenished in a day or two
my new destination, a place called MU(Lemuria)
Before me, lays another voyage into the unknown, a blind jump. leap of fate
a destination well-known, a world in a desperate state
filled with malice and raising hate
another old story, another pointless debate
but nonetheless, Mu is my new appointment, my new “date”
even if it’s crawling with blasphemous creatures and
senseless killing preachers …
This ride can’t be postponed, I have no choice but to listen to my inner voice
My mind is one of a kind, we are known through many ages as the order of holly mages.
Our power is a gift from Kronos himself for a job done well
eons ago when this universe was lazy and slow
Now is bursting with life, filled with good and bad things, here and there you can find even after all this time a miraculous surprise
now we are just four, closing and opening the hidden doors
doors are portals of time where lives our prime(True essence)
My mind is filled with songs and images forbidden to the ordinary eye
in many other worlds, I might be even called a spy
But, I am not a spy just a watchful and very perceptive eye
my existence is hidden behind the threshold that humans call the visible world
this voyage is only for the brave and bold for those that can’t be bought or sold
my presence can be felt, sometimes even seen but not against my will
my prime, my true existence swims in vast corridors of time,
it is not a crime,
to be able to swim against what humans call a unit measured as time…
I don’t hide, I just don’t wanna be seen, you can say my behavior is equal to sin
This device in my hands looks nice but is a secret well hidden from preying and jealous eyes, eyes that don’t think twice and don’t play nice
A Secret, known just to a few potent minds,
minds that can tame the force of this apparatus and gain a new higher status
minds that are able to find a home under the treacherous and translucent dome
even if they are exposed to neverending torture
they still fiercely looking for the hidden, distant fortune
This fortune is not gold, silver, or even shiny amber lost in some forgotten slumber
knowledge is real gold that can be sold and traded
Even a portion of bad luck can be sometimes skilfully evaded
Our kind is Always ready for the next plethora of things that will come
far, far, far away from
home…
Our kind is haunted these days so against all our beliefs a secret pact was forged with one human faction, they are ready and willing for action…
They believe in this Green world inside this Earth, a strange place with no visible entrance, just a few caves that will pinpoint the location under old moonlight light, on certain days of the year.
Earth is the heart of this galaxy a fact known just to a few holy men on this, they call this place a planet, a “spinning planet.”
Human race I always wandered against who or what are they racing, maybe amongst themselves?
They all are talking about this Goddes, this immaculate lady or is it a girl, there are many stories among them, but few could give us a decent, almost accurate description of this elusive being who is visiting them sometimes even in their dreams…
There are no Gods just beings that are more evolved, and longer here among you, we were there where your universe was born there were no Gods….that you all speak of so valiantly.
But if you like to cold them Gods, be my guest…who am I to shatter dreams of a young and vibrant race, streaming for new heights, calling for freedom…it would be not right, I said quietly, biting my lips at the same time to myself.
There was something strange about their leader, he was different, and strange energy was pulsating insight his body, was he this God among them?
For, being so old I had too many questions, but I was always i curious thing, well mannered and beloved among young races…
My smile could strip down even the queen of this known universe, yes I was a real charmer. I had many years of practicing my skill so there was almost no match in this part of the galaxy that could trump my manners or my level of eloquence.
I was a force of nature when something or somebody has to be persuaded, I rarely backed down from any verbal fight…yes, I was a stubborn old fart, looking for trouble, but I should know better….it never ends well…
Even Humans say: “The road to hell is paved with good intentions”
Even this hell that is a funny story to our kind, “You will burn in hell”…..sounds very menacing, but like many things, the fact is all is just silly nonsense, nonsense that exclusively travels with young races, they are all prisoners of many superstitions, till they reach new levels of conscience.new ideas are born and old superstitions are torn, gutted, and thrown in the garbage, where they, realistically belong.
ouch, I forgot to tell you why we are haunted these days, we are rare animals, and our brains are worth an ungodly price of money if you believe in such a thing…
It is really hard to kill us, but there are a few predators who can spot fluctuations in time and space so instantly like assassins they are visiting the last place where the disturbance was present, looking for their prize, in this case, our brain. A large brain, really large Brain, impossible large brain…you can hide half of this universe in it and still have the spare room for a planet or two…did I say how large it is? I did, well.it is important to know the enormity of our brains….
An experiment done in a tend, by the golden river there are just a few souls who can attend…
souls that have seen the infidels ghouls, critters devoided from souls
bound to a darkest dark, dark void
waiting there for the next exploit…
in this domain, they are the prey in the next they are the hidden hunter
an annoying banter, A helter-skelter looking for a dry shelter
Fueled with the power of hate, they never negotiate
creatures hidden in the dark praying on humans spark
looking for a nest in the mists of the Human Arc.
So we train day and night, this is the only way we can stay alive in this fight
The last city is still standing, here the life force is still strong
but all can go wrong, even with this song
we are the last defense, the last disposable gun under the White Sun.
We are holly dreamers, holly-conscious streamers
we don’t use a faulty cross or useless holly water, with that nonsense, we don’t bother
we draw our sacred power from another source, we are the true and sacred force
We are the hammer
we are the iron will
in our heads a picture of flaming steel!
Honor is our true name, we play another kind of game
We are defenders of fate, defenders of the human race
We will have a last say, and
“They”, they
will pay!
o,k this is very long, maybe the construction is not in the right order and definitely needs an edit, but maybe all things are best to look at when they are naked and exposed…not refurbished and given another glory, a different story.
Excellent synopsis of the field HP, right now we are eating their lunch right in front of them, but it will require a sustained effort to be rid of them, just like any other parasitical infestation. In a way the Black Goo is a big help separating the wheat from the chaff. It's ruthless but efficient and I suspect they will lose control those infected.
You've topped yourself again, Brother. Thank you for the inspiring read. 88!
