Hirudineans

Dark Fortress

Somewhere down the line
 Man created god in his image
 Inadequacy on a pedestal
 A basin for a lake of tears to drown in

 And here we go again
 Where there's blood there's hirudineans
 Crawling from every hole, blotting blindly
 A brainless mob on the prowl

 Sycophants cough their amen
 Follow the light at the end of the auricle
 Egos inflate as the bugs migrate
 Every blurp a revelation, an oracle

 Fall, fall, fall, like flies from the heavens
 The leeches slide from their slippy throne
 Suck, suck, suck, till we drown in their muck
 Still quetching away, splitting heads with their drone

 I will not waste my time
 I will not waste my anger
 Trying to find the head on a worm
 With a rectum on either end

 A lie in a frame is still a profanity
 A ghoul with a crown can never be king
 Even crap will succumb to vanity
 its own stench the measure of all things

 Fall, fall, fall, like drunks from a tight rope
 Nothing but a skidmark in history
 Suck, suck, suck, empty heads run amok
 Choking on self-digesting misery

 Eyes will open
 Only when the ass starts burning
 Atrophied tentacles start groping
 Always loping, never learning

 Deeper and deeper
 Into the swamp you sing with every word
 To rot on its bottom
 Until the stink heralds the next outpour of turds
