House of salt

House of salt

Thou shalt not bring this evil

Back into the house, 

For it brings the bitterness of a

Hundred years after the death of

Your brother through the slayings;

Into this earth with its allies split 

In armour we shall force our way; 

The women themselves lay bare

And naked raped numerous times; 

The children now slaves

Into this earth is the fire and

Destruction for the transgressions 

As Daria was raped by a soldier

From the 12th column 

She lay bare with blood leaving her vagina and a stake in her heart

By the time the healer had made his way across the city

The lady of the King who was one of a few concubines lay dead

Killed by a traitor 

This marked the beginning of the end 

And I shalt not want 

Lay bare across the table 

And I shalt not want 

Lay bare across the table 

And I shalt not want 

Lay bare across the table 

Dead in her own blood 

And I shalt not want 

The salt of the earth 

On this judgement day 

The court full 

The accused sentenced 

At that point his neck slit

For the raping of Daria

Repeatedly, 

Her body bare and bloodied 

Laying in the flames 

By which this raging fire brings 

Forth the birth of the 

House of salt

Morning Tony, 

I enjoyed our dinner last night, 

the whisky was frisky and 

the time sublime; 

therefore you can accuse me 

of making the darn thing up;

guilty as sin!! 

lUV & hope Jai:)

God this is so good Jai.... I'm reeling a bit from the power and depth in your words. Like one of the classic writers of old, you have transported me. This is marvelous. So glad I stopped in. All stars and pinned. Bravo poet.
