They Have No Faces
My curses illuminate the paths of the branded
Like fireflies that carry the plague
A compound eye
Of an irrevocable lie
Bathes us in multitudinous glimmers
Shimmers of mendacity
That charm in their intensity, ensnaring all who clutch at the mirage of faith
Eyes full of promise
Mouth full of malice
And a mind divided like a gemini twin
Singing discordant hymns that glorify and sanctify
The unholy thoughts within
We are slaves to ourselves
And our cliched sorrows, strewn across the boardrooms of white-collar misery
I am the product of a circular descent
Into a substantial void of conscience and dissent
All hate takes shape in the form of a debilitated humanoid figure
A subversive reflection
That lays all perception of worth
To waste.

Guys, I am overwhelmed by such kind words and positive response to all my boundless negativity. Lol, forgive me, I am a cynic. But before all the gods, I tell you that your words here mean a great deal to me, and to know that something I write could have any measure of profound effect on my readers, means more to me than you could ever fathom. Thank you once again, friends. Stay rad. :)
