Quiet0,
Hush your minds for a thought
The first herald of trumpets call.

To this devine moment
I seem to have been arranged
As the jester of court, the fool today.

Come quick, you motley cast
Take aim at my heart
Please yourselves in my past.

I, having been banished
Raped, soiled and most degraded
Will endure your harshness closed mouth.

Look close and see true
This vision, dressed black with green eyes
Shocked white hair, that gives me life.

Oh angels of the last,
Do not act vengence for my heart
And break my mind, quiver to you.

Place hands upon my breast
Take the spirit that lives
Leave me naked on Gods word.
