melasureJ

and did the visionary in more recent time
prophesy his verse schemed inverted
to echo to the rafters to enshrine
the war-mongers the priesthood the monarch..

for synagogues of satan to meld his lines
to reforge for human harvest
the darkest mills to consign generations weaponised
higher-mindedness denigrated occulted repurposed..

how appealing to the puppeteers
to rouse to sleep this sold deception
for what strange lamb now walks here
shadow-luminaries never question..

all the ecstatic insatiable spirits mock
their grand designs stock furnace sacrifices
impassioned innocents the flag-waving flock
melasurej the extinguishing anthem here lies..

and did the seer divine numinous
this time-unreal as anciently known
confirming was it not ever thus
there is nothing new under the sun..

bring us our sleeping bags and sunglasses
bring us kitsch sentiment and pied pipers
bring us glowing sticks and distraction devices
string us along with cipher..

we must never overcome never grasp what is clear
nor lift the lid on the palace creature
their road of excess has led to melasurej
the dark lights entrance so the glazed-eyed revere..
