Audacious Stains Copyright 2003 Anthony J. Garot ---------------- Cremated forest, ashen lake, Barren desolation, unfathomable mistake, Embers smolder, no flowers for May, Residue wraiths, they saunter away. Obliterating fury, beyond imagination, Bounded only by depletion and starvation. Firm beliefs, stave not annihilation, Planet of dust from colossal detonation. Shrug your shoulders, shake your head, Introduce yourself in the land of the dead. Your coffers are empty in life's only sequel, Death has that way of making all equal. Justified cause, justified reason, Death for sale! 'Tis always the season. Drama unfurls through timeless device, Carving the Earth with too potent knife. Audacious Stains paint the sky, Abandon all hope, it's time to die. Audacious Stains, madman's delight, Clamorous pounding follows blinding light. ---- Deep inside, hey, what do you see? Incendiary rage, unwholesome glee. Take the hand of those smarter than thee, off at the wrist!
