Literature Text

Into death,
Out of mind,
Gone from body,
All are blind.

Gone are we,
From the earth,
We are free,
No more mirth.

Upon our graves,
Are roses red,
To quell the fact,
That we are dead.

Death

I'll find you... In your last hour... I'll find you... Don't worry, i won't get lost... I know the way... I always know the way... I'll save you... Through pain and suffering... I'll save you... You're asking for what and why? It's pointless... There is no answer... I'm the eternal judge... I'm your destiny... I'm Death...

Death

When I die I want to explode I want the soul to come charging out of this shell with such violence that my ribs are split down the middle and opened like a walnut the head gone scattered in bits on the walls the floor my guts blasted onto the ceiling so that belatedly kidneys and intestines will fall upon the doctor or nurse that attends the skin will split as my soul jumps for the light my leg bones will rise up in the bed and dance across the floor out the door to the elevator and out into the street onto the cars in traffic my gory feet will dance! kicking gobs of bad flesh at screaming spectators until my

Grim Reaper

Accept me as your protecter and murderer, Time to behold the truth. The truth of your own demise, Can you not see my black tears as i cry for you? Against my stone heart, Feelings for you will never cease. Trying to get you your death. I can not bear your pain anymore, As i watch you from afar, Please take my bony hand, To your shallow grave. This is your final resting place, Your holy altar, I will never lead you astray, Trust me and hold my hand. Leading you into the dark depths, Laying you down on your bed. Now fall asleep my darling, All this is just a dream. The time will come, but now sleep. Live your life because

Necromancer

Fly away home, the enchanter is near. His sweet bells will ring, but have you no fear. Night will ensue; it's presence draw nigh. Oh what sweet, a blessing to die! Hear the trembling, ever soft cry. The time has come, bid your likeness goodbye Soft! Hear my cry, Death's presence draw nigh. Oh what sweet a blessing to die! Course, the waters black as coal. Entice and trap this useless soul. Its life is fragile, drowned in the light. Erase its pain in the mem'ry of night Night come to me, draw darkness nigh. Oh what sweet, a blessing to die! First the toll to bind you well! Hold fast to your soul or be drug down to hell Water

The Birds Will Sing

Let it go. Nothing is permanent in this wicked world. It gets better then this. Yesterday is over, today is a new day. Hope for tomorrow. Tomorrow, the birds will sing. It's time to let it go. Let it go. It gets better then this. This pain will not last. Your sorrow will pass. Yesterday is over, today is a new day. Hope for tomorrow. Tomorrow, the birds will sing. It gets so much better then this.

World of Pain

Within this world I created, The hatred has permeated, The care, the heart, the soul, And turned it to molten coal. It has made me suffer on, Turned me into anger's little pawn; With rage ruling the throne, There's not much I can do on my own. Without the red in my eyes, I look up to see starry skies, And cry for days long ago, When I could just go with the flow. It hurts so much to be this mad; For many a month it wasn't so bad, Until it sat too long ashore, Too rampant and evil to ignore. Like a leech upon my chest, It had long since built a nest, With guilt, hate, and resentment too. I was lost, alone, without a clue; What was happening an

This is Halloween!

This is Halloween: Boys and girls of every age Wouldn't you like to see something strange? Come with me and you will see The friends I've hung down from this tree... This is Halloween, this is Halloween Corpses scream in the dead of night! This is Halloween, everybody make a scene Trick or treat till the neighbors gonna die of fright. It's our town, everybody scream! In this town of Halloween... I am the one hiding under your bed; Licking your hand with a tongue so red and - I am the one crawling up your stairs, Thump-thump-drag, when no one's there... This is Halloween, this is Halloween Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! Hallo

The Handsome Boy in the Mirror

I used to see him every day, the handsome boy in the mirror. I took solace from the world in his piercing gaze. So long did I admire his androgynous face, his smooth flat chest, his soft hairless skin, and his rebellious long hair. I knew not then that my puberty meant that he would be stolen from me, his body betraying him, doomed to suffer through breasts, estrogen, and body hair, his increasing awareness of a lack of bulge down there. I used to press my hand against his, the handsome boy in the mirror. For he was the me who I could love. ...And he will always be who I really am. I search for him to this day, the handsome boy in the mirro

Cheshire Cat's Lullaby

Dear little Alice, please don't cry Tears of woe won't help you get by I know that you feel scared, lost and alone Since you cannot find your way back home Have strange things happened? Is there anything I need to know? Did you taste things that make you shrink or grow? Did you suffer any, please say it isn't so! I will help you out, just wait and see You'd be glad that you found a cat like me I'll show you around this fascinating place Only if you keep a smile on your face No more reading signs that say "This way" or "Yonder" Now you don't have to sit down and try to ponder Which way should you go, you ask? I seem to find that
