“What matter the victims, provided the gesture is beautiful? | |
What matters the death of vague human beings, | |
If thereby the individual affirms himself?” – Laurent Tailhade | |
The black Idol emerges as a silver lining in a dust cloud of death, | |
Eerie parallel tongues and the piping of heaven | |
The culture of transgression is mine and my descent | |
Makes me ascend in a repugnant swirl… | |
Sic volo, | |
Sic jubeo, | |
Stat pro ratione voluntas | |
The black Idol fills the veil of flesh with noxious smoke, | |
Depicting primal human experiences indifferently, | |
Contemptuous of moral concerns, dehumanized | |
The howling of wolves and the destructive sword are portions of Eternity, | |
Too great for the eyes of merely a man… | |
Transcendence of thresholds occurs with violence | |
And will for Vice is like the mind's dark radiance | |
Which blinds and of which I'm dying | |
Corruption is the spiritual cancer reigning in the depths of things | |
And it fills until the last cell of my vivid being | |
Dissolution and putrefaction, prevailing Aesthetic experience, | |
The splendor of the obscene and inhuman; | |
For what matters the death of a vague human beings | |
If thereby the individual affirms himself? | |
Violence exists I the moment when the eye turns upwards into the head, | |
When inversion is complete and total | |
The darkness of the upturned eye is not the absence of light | |
But the process of seeing being taken to its limit | |
That thorough derangement of the senses, | |
Way beyond the deceptive conflict between darkness and light | |
Opens perceptions to the tyranny of the Chekhinah… | |
Si non credideritis, | |
Non inteligetis | |
The dimension of ethereal totalitarianism discloses itself | |
And takes possession of the quintessential human soul | |
Like a nail hammered through most tender flesh | |
Aeons separate the one whose eyes have seen through the night of the spirit | |
The king, the Lord of hosts, draped in terrifying magnificence | |
From the gleaming clot of trembling vermin | |
If a faith and a belief aren't nurtured by the moist of blood | |
They do not grow, nor do they live | |
It is at the magnitude of daily murders, massacres and mass graves | |
That we do measure the propagation of our faith | |
Hearken and recognize, that hideous carrion | |
Legs in the air, like a whore – displayed, indifferent to the last | |
A belly slick with lethal sweat and swollen with foul gas… | |
This is you, nourishing | |
