The place just beyond my eyes, where my spirit flies.

See the smoke pour from the hole,
The peoples stories remain untold,
Smell the flesh burn in the fire,
The human life is soon to expire,
Turn to see my heart ablaze,
As you peer through that foggy haze,
Want to turn and run away,
Run until the break of day,
Feet are stapled to the ground,
Horrid feelin' comin' 'round,
On your knees you begin to cry,
From the hole screams of WHY!?
Angels fall from above,
God no longer spreads His love,
No one ascending to the sky,
Only falling, down to die,
Women hunched to protect their child,
From themselves, untamed and wild,
Once again you want to run,
Run until this day is done,
Wretched souls come for seven years,
Screaming in your bleeding ears,
Then at last you feel the pain,
The singing fire mixed with rain,
You fall, crippled to one knee,
Looking up, your blame in me,
YOU DID IT YOURSELF, YOU COBBLED THIS PLACE!
NOW I SPIT UPON YOUR FACE!
At long last you are dead,
Place my fingers on your head,
Through your hair I run my fingers,
In your flesh the evil lingers,
Only heritics will burn alive,
AND ONLY I WILL SURVIVE!
Now and forever let it be said,
That all the people in the world are dead,
Lost their lives in their capture,
Lost it all to the reverse rapture.

That was beautiful.  It was like a song to me.  Very well written, it totally made my chin drop...
Loved it,

Hmm...thought-provoking and mildly frightening imagery...very nice!!! (Am suddenly unsure of whether I'm happy to be agnostic/atheist or not...>; P)

I was weary to post this because of september 11 but the fact is that I wrote it about 3 months before hand
