Blackened

violated by an unseen assailant
eyes penetrated deep into my soul
the landscape of my life
has been possessed by demonic hordes
and now I worship at the altar of fear

we the faithless pray for the return
of the condemned messiah
we  have gifted a plastic crucifix
especially for his return
our faces are etched in the glory of violence

death is a ritual which must be performed
by the high priest of hypocrisy
let his flock be baptised in eternal misery
here the flock are praying for the destruction
of all who harbour light and hope
