Phoenix Burning: Poetry
The Closet Inside My Head
A ghost calls from closet inside my head;
Imagine not a skeleton, instead
Sweet mirage: siren song and sugar cane.
Then it begins with the force of a train.
Hell ride; twisted, dark tunnels of my mind.
Can't stop 'cause ghost called and judgment is blind.
Down, down, deeper, to the bottom level;
Consort with daemons; deal with the Devil.
The ghost is calling and I am falling;
Satan smiles at me.
The ghost is calling and I am falling;
Sweet ecstasy.
In front of the closet without a key,
But his bargain opens it so I can see;
Warm glow summons; my secret dimension;
Cross threshold and prepare for ascension.
Sacrament in haste grants reunion;
Anticipation for the communion;
And then she appears, pleasure incarnate;
Achieve Nirvana and then it's too late.
The ghost is calling and I am falling;
Satan laughs at me.
The ghost is calling and I am falling;
Evil ecstasy.
Tidal wave; it slips beyond my control;
Searching for me to see inside my soul.
Devil's promises are the Devil's lies;
She's evil beneath those beckoning thighs.
Awake. Was it a nightmare... or a dream?
Then see invoice from Devil's rotten ream.
She calls again; sweet melodious voice;
Decision is mine, but I have no choice.
The ghost is calling and I am falling;
Satan smiles at me.
The ghost is calling and I am falling;
Evil ecstasy.
