I am He


I am He
The twice born Son
Unconceived
As yet undone
In my hand
I hold a gun
Against Blind Justice
The Tainted One
There is no ransom
She shan't go free
Forever will she be
Next to me
I feel the trigger
I see the blow
Recoil in anger
She bleeds not slow
I heal the wound
With soothing speech
So I can kill her
Again next week
Every time I feel the itch
A thousand times, I'll kill the Bitch
As yet undone
Unconceived
The twice born Son
I am He
So it is written
So shall it be
So it is spoken
So mote it be

Perhaps you should explain this one to us a bit. I think I have an idea what it's all about..but, I don't want to misinterpret.

elvira: Thanks! shan't and sharn't

Dolores: Nope, not angry at anyone. Just that I have many different poetic sides, from the satanic to angelic, free and constructed, love and hate. I think you catch the drift. After 10 years of writing poetry, I think I would shoot myself if I was still writing in the same style.

Sally: When this was wrote, I believe I was listening to Iron Maiden's "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son". It's basically about revolution and the angst-ridden hatred of 'Justice' in this present context. And, no, I'm not advocating overthrow of the government..at least not at the moment..it's just something that wrote itself. Also, the last 4 lines are a conclusive ending, prophetic in nature. i.e. 'As it is written, so shall it be' kinda thing.
