Pomegranate

Lyrics

But meanwhile there was a ghost in my life
 And the pomegranate blues descended
 Heard voices of planets following
 Satellites in death's purple paws
 Mix the drains like golden dragon fever
 Shapur II Lord of Dust
 In the battefields of precrescent rain
 The putti rejoice and Julian is unhorsed
 Speared and smeared in the desert
 First and last just in dust
 Smashed as Athena
 As dead as Seraphis misted in Babylon
 The slaughter arose as stars
 Stars dragged blood and souls
 Up to the heavens
 The skies filled with flies
 The bird of locust flowers
 Screams and wheels at the ape
 Froth and fear in the nostrils of the steeds
 Steering bloodhurds to the mountain fame
 The hip killers are burning like devil
 The trip of the light burned bright
 The eyes of the blind open like whirlwinds
 The breastplate of graceface
 The lamp pours light into the children's mouths
 Open the slit of the conspiracy
 And go further into the perfect peace
 Of the perfect world envisioned by
 The Murderer
 The First Dead
 The First Killer
 The First Framer
 The farmer in Sodom
 Cattle reaper
 A thought to spear the care
 Enough is too late
 The sky took lies from me
 Turned my head to smoke
 Rising over the near East
 With lips tasted of peace
 And Kingdoms far within
 The queendom
 The bells
 And grave faces hieratic
 Under the Moon
 Its waves and light
 Lifting the dead from under dust
 Choked unmore and moved
 Unquick and lithe
 Lifting their hearts like the Sunflower
 Drank HoneySuckle Æons
 And toasted toys goodnight
 But around the back
 Of the bars of the City of God
 The Night squeals and prays entrance
 Attendance for the march
 The Rainbow Children were trademarked
 And branded on their skulls
 The triple eating curve
 Marked! Marked!
 Hey hey horror hail hail
 Grey bloody dawn down dawns
 Get back black crack moon
 Slip back slide dead red moon
