Palestine

What virtues do we hold dear

In a world ruled by fear?

Kindness, compassion, a conscience clear

Actions in gear so we near peace and cheer

But this peace is on a lease

Subject to the whims of those who police

Those with a platform and a mouth-piece

Steering narratives through a press release

Such is their masterpiece

Making their monstrosities approbative

All with a sneer and a jeer

Erasing innocents and natives, without a tear

Strategies and fallacies spread across the sphere

Atrocities touted as victories sincere

To please the puppeteer, the racketeer

Victims being told to bear and adhere

Yet they persevere with no fear

Their courage has no peer and that, we revere

Everywhere, those who speak get a spear

Remember, it's still better than a phosphorus sear

Let's keep watching this historical souvenir

3000 stolen futures under "liberation's" snare

Their blood staining our souls' veneer

75 years of this genocidal premiere

Day and night
A world on fire
Raining napalm
A missile for each neighbour
The 'hood too calm

Standing in this blight
Waiting for a saviour
Smoke camouflaging fears
Blood riddled tears
So many innocent martyrs

Not just a fight,
An out and out massacre
Sisters raped, brothers staked
Small bodies draped
No cavalier, ambassador or leader

Zion in full smite
No supply, only drones in the sky
Media turning a blind eye
To Gaza's helpless cry
During this bloodstained July

#PrayForGaza

Cataclysm

Write of the World
Of morality blurred

Of taxes, debt and financial turd
Of education, now a hollow word

Of war, feeding media
Articles and news inciting paranoia

Ignorance engendering hate
Hate catalysing crime

None willing to wait
Such is our time

The time of Mammon's creed
Money, things and Greed

One can ask how and why
Believe in his lie

But the only bona fide
The world's heart already died

Wolverine

Immortal, I live on

Without any memories of my past

I seek redemption

For all those felled by my blades

This life goes by fast

As I roar through the decades

My smile is a facade

As my life, a charade

Haunted by the woman I love

Who cherishes another

My fist clenches in a glove

As my chest is torn asunder

Masked and alone I stand

Even though broken

I watch the pendulum

While cursing adamantium

My existence is a disease,

Without any vaccine

Feared by Hades,

I am Wolverine

Plagued

Born and bred

Of hate, pain and fear

I was constantly fed

Until I dropped that last tear

Feeling that disease spread

Disgust made way as fear fled

I could feel it squirm and scream

Flowing through my bloodstream

Filled with dread

I was taunted as I bled:

"I would never truly be dead

For my home is your head"

Loathe

This is something shitty, for the people who can't let us be
So here we go, with the flow
A description of them, hopefully their requiem

There are fakes, who know nothing of the stakes
And the hypocrites, devoid of any wit
Forget not the hunks, who have souls devoid of any spunk

Hopefully soon to die, the bitches, spreading rumours
Least of all, the blabbermouths, lacking in couth
You're not worth a buck, so we don't give a fuck

You're all eyesores, bores and fucking whores
If you had any sense at all, you'd hide in a hole
Don't ask why, for your own sake just die...

Veiled

The mask is there
For you not to stare
Not to look into these eyes
And find nothing there
Besides the things you despise

Forget not, remember
What I did to them in Winter
The heartless massacre
Judgement I had to deliver

Pinkish tinge of snow
Frozen blood that couldn't flow
Their carcasses food for the crow

An agent of chaos
I am the reason for your loss
Your lethal enemy
The only cause for this anarchy

So love me not,
Pity the abyss in me
Kill me, set me free
Gift me death and let me rot

Reset

There was happiness inside of me

The something that made me content

For which there was no warrant

Through this feeling, intoxicated you be

There was love inside of me

The cause of jealousy

Yet giving me glee

Through it, heaven I could see

There was sadness inside of me

The tears of melancholy

Where despair and gloom rule

Suicide was the way for the fool

There was violence inside of me

Twisted anger and uncontrollable hate

Seeking only to break free

For too long had been the wait

There is nothing inside of me

For after you left me

I tore my dried up heart

From my chest

I made a new start

Became a demon at your behest

Lycanthropia

So began the awakening

Of something beyond your usual evil

From man to beast

Readying for another feast

Another carnal kill

This is not just vicious

The blood, bile and pus

The razor sharp claws on those monstrous paws

The blood soaked fangs within those feral jaws

All that makes it the ultimate predator

Though powerless versus silver

Triggered by the full moon

The hatching of the cocoon

Mistake it not for your usual demon

For this is beyond

Shadow of what was once human

This is a Lycan

Seraphim

Servants of the Divine light
Tolerate morning, noon and night
Forgiveness sought for this might

Limitless power
Uncontrollable anger
Souls as wager

Half-dead corpses
Drawn are their last few breaths
Woeful yet meaningful deaths

Mangled bodies crawling in agony
Seeketh they,
Riddance from their misery

Thus our reason for being
Born from the darkness within

To souls wicked and poor alike,
Be it moments of war or peace
We offer release
By the sword and the pike

Mammon: Mortis Nuntius

The 7 deadly sins exist no longer
Defeated by one of their kin
6 of them were no longer seen
The message left by their reaper:

Pride's death was humiliating
Stripped of his arrogance, he went in hiding
It was almost too funny as his downfall was swift
And in a pool of his own blood, he floated adrift

Consumed by her desire for carnal love
That never-ending thirst of hers was her demise
With her pleasure moans and enticing cries
In the netherworld Lust found her alcove

His mouth full, Gluttony waddled around
Until his lecherous eyes suddenly popped out
Choking he thrashed and went to ground
Drooling for more, he fell prey to the hound

Sloth was dreadfully sleazy
Dispatching him to Hell was easy
Torn asunder in his lethargy so deep
He fell in that one never-ending sleep

Rage etched in his face
He fought, though futile, against my menace
And his severed head rolled down the path
So happened the murder of Wrath

Envy was family, my sister
We were kin and practically similar
But deeper ran rivalry and this is a fact
Dictated by my instincts, I ended her part in my act

Lording over many an aeon
Power and might are what I feed on
Synonymous to Avarice and Mammon,
I bear the name Greed
And killing is my creed

Puppets

Once again, the horn resounds
For the battlefield to be littered
With their mangled corpses and metal
Above which vultures hovered

Nicking at the pile of flesh lying around
Proud soldiers, torn from life
Brave warriors, victims of strife
Fallen to the hound

Fools with those antics, I hate
They are deserving of their fate
Lawless and heartless, we endeavor
For their era to be over

There won't be any survivor
Ruthless is our demeanor
Their defeat we'll savor
While they hope for a saviour

Our kind will rise
Turning the pages of history
Our kin will make you flee
Lest, you'll all be part of the killing spree
