prophecy

like a hawk on the hunt
you will clench the last straw
inaction becomes unthinkable
and you will start to stir

ravenous and empty
furious and sad
you will devour the truth
to emerge changed forever

and at one point
and you will have to murder
oh, destroy you will
complacency at one point
the signs, they are everywhere


like a turtle on its back
you'll squint into the hole
a passage half open
half overgrown with grey

here you will find peace
arise from the dampness
and peek through the glass
the stars forgotten for good

and at one point
and you will have to twist
oh, distort you will
sanity at one point
the signs, they are everywhere


like a moth to the fire
towards inevitable demise
soon engulfed by decay
the ultimate fate of all things

a single tear will fall
then you will sign the truce
between your ceaseless yearning
and the warm embrace of entropy

and at one point
and you will have to break
oh, snap you will
at one point or later
the signs, they are everywhere

(2014)
