***Tandem***

I'm a broken jar of beautiful pottery
Fallen from beauty's shelf
I lie shattered in strange paths
Strewn by the beauties of our ugliness.
I near the tandem of a fallen god
Surrounded by vain worshippers
All fragments of a broken piety
Like ants in colonies.
In vain they chant in endless cycles of folly
Picking up the fragments of cherished dogmas
Scattered hay while like broken chaplets
Struck by truth's lightening bolt,
In the procession of demons in holy garbs
Bearing the crucifix of the fallen prince of darkness!
Standards and standards upon standards
Falsehoods grows in vestal jubilee for judgement
Holy garbs wearing Satan's collars in whitewashed guilt
Faithfuls from knowledge and truth estranged
Hallelujahs chorused in drugged zombie fashion
While the heavens in awe watch near been amiss,
As holiness is dragged in garbs of reverenced hypocrisies
From Eden to Babylon broken,
Through the streets of Rome broken,
Till Zion comes, broken...
