crossed out of our mindscapes
 we're frozen in the time
 stretched around your face a mask
 a clever disguise ever
 so enticing this corroding chemical synapse
 spawn of a beast
 an ethereal drain tatters on the brink
 burst into a cloud of spores
 explode into the atmosphere
 weaving our lives with chaotic design siphons
 what's left inside
 suppress us
 impress us with subtle delusions
 and life-like proportions
 bled into one another plagiarize
 our dreams
 a rift in eternity
 all [bad word] within it's entirety..
 baptized in fire
 leeching the underbelly
 tired traditions
 retired a discord within the choir
 so sing the praise with your noiseless voices and pass the blame in the age of distorted reality
 refined relief in chaos unleashed we find release
