Museum of Iscariot: I. Stagnation / II. Death / III. Procession
Jesus lies dying in my bed Companions since birth In this stagnant dingy haunt He has never really live. Last night I beat him, As he would not leave My insane eyes stare at him, As his wilted body bleeds. Frequently I rape him, As I know nothing else He curls up like a fetus, And paints his face with sadness.
Now a fragment Of remorse is etched I bandage his wounds I kiss the face of Jesus Christ But he is dead.
What can I do? You've forsaken me You called yourself messiah, And expected me to follow An now he lays dead, And your prophecies with him I will bury him not, As insult to your face.
As I stare at his corpse, One detail disturbs me His cold, stark finger, Points where I have not been.
From my house, The cage of rotten wood I stumble forth, To lay beneath the bush Withered bones groan, I cultivate As the soil and I grow closer.
The sun recieves an empty gaze It mourns, It knows my life is gone No more to offer But my flesh to this soil And a single tear Marks my final prayer. The rosebud sits In the palm of your hand As I end, this flower blossoms.
