We Are Dust

In this skeletal form, rupture skin and flesh

Wake these eyes of bone to life

In this skeletal form, rupture skin and flesh

The ashes of the dead arise

Past an enormity of stifling redundancy

We suck breath into this dry carcass

With joints that crack and veins that run gravel

To set in motion, exultant

Skeleton, churning rivers of smoke

Skies laughing with blood

Islands separated by a fraction of surface

Conductors through holy submission and humble duty

She'd an iron shroud and inverting fire

Vibrant ghoul, birthing thunder and lunacy

Serve

Reaver, fool, carve justice from within

Priestess, exacting judgment of a silver globe

Apparition dissolve

Dissolve and depart

In this skeletal form, reverberate and shudder

In this larval state, germinate and stutter

In this skeletal form, carry until it is over

Serve
