The Anatomist
05:44
|
|||
Before anesthesia and complacent law intervened
Grave robbers supplied fresh cadavers for experiments none so serene
By moonlight they toiled fetching the anatomist his prize
Ghoulish, nocturnal rampages, blueprints for medical life.
Shrieking in sheer agony
Dull instruments attempt to alleviate pain
Amputating limbs, blood begins to drain
The subject is still alive
Watching disease removed by knives
A barbaric practice to benefit future lives.
Burking became fashionable
Monetary compensation ever tempting
A doctor paid excellent guinea
Illegal body transport, unrelenting.
Corpses were brought to Laboratories
Mad scientist lairs dresses in candlelight
Where innards were studied by category
Methodically butchered through the night.
Ancestral Surgeons were curious
Obsessed with the anatomy of the human body
And these early expeditions, however superlious
Were usually brutal and gaudy.
Whether cut from a hangman's noose
Or pried erratically from a fresh grave
These anatomical specimen offered insight
For the anatomist ever brave.
What was a grotesque display
Paved the slab for operations today.

Invisible Corpse

Everything you ever said
Whispers and drones in an endless eternity
Never documented, thus not spoke
Billions of lives provoked.
Invisible Corpse
Were you ever born?
Invisible Corpse
Did you ever die?
Time to them seemed everlasting
But the endless forever is lambasting
The cattle call herd of life,
eviscerated by death's scythe
Ever tragic, yet no sympathy
For the geriatric or infant gallery.
Generation upon generation
Of procreating fools
Every cadaver a pawn
All useless tools.
In space no one hears your pleas
In eternity echoes eighty billion screams
In this eternal vacum
Your life wasn't even a dream
Simple plasma creatures
Existing just to bleed.

Shotgun Lobotomy
06:46
|
|||
Sabotaging the inane by percise gunfire
With this overabundance of stupidity
I'm always for hire.
Waiting in ambush to obliterate the prey
Like an alligator profiling
It's victim for the day.
Impending bullets lodge in craniums
Bodies twitch and piss while they shit.
Shot full of lead
Blown apart head
Hostile hostilities
Put to bed.
Conducting drive by's
On living nuisances.
Walking, talking, target practice
Bullseye on the brain
Glocking while stalking
Lower status domain.
Rendered brainless and aimless
By a silver slug
A thinking mechanism
No longer begrudged.
Bullet proof, souped up on accelerant
Voluntary manslaughter rampage
All humans are an irritant
Pulling triggers, venting rage.
Shot full of lead
Blown apart head
Hostile hostilities
Put to bed.
Shotgun Lobotomy!!

Ululations in the Ether
05:53
|
|||
Voices from the past fall on deaf ears
Screams from afar calling
Puppets with their strings,
Scathing the earth
Faces looking up, unseeing
Creature From below,
Seeing us it hurts
Tied to it's chamber, seething
Beauty as it fades, sadly it peers
Slain, leaving us, falling.
Ululations in the ether.

The Steps of Life
06:30
|
|||
The windows are shutting, as the shadows close in
The embers I fanned are lashed by cold winds
Now how cold can I grow-
Before I freeze where I stand?
With my beating heart slipping, through my fingers like sand.
My every thought is poison
Which though I may avoid it
Devours me from inside
Like something else is in control of my mind.
Whisper to me...
