Carnal Angels

Carnal Angels

Passion they embody

Nothing to beg for

Taking it away for me

Not a harpy

But a harlot

Stroke me in my dreams

Persistence in their prodding

Shudder, not alone, stutter, moan a drone

Life means nothing to me in times like these

Carnal Angels

Satisfy my all needs

Spoken in lore

A figment of my dreams

Carnal Angels

Passion they embody

Nothing to beg for

Taking it away for me

Life means nothing to me in times like these

Carnal Angels

Seduce me completely

Voluptuous vixens

My desires replete

Shudder, not alone, stutter, moan a drone

Life means nothing to me in times like these

Price

Living a life in love

It floats on by like a dove

Taken by graces

Bracing for a hold

Though it never ends

So the pain comes

And I've hit a standstill

Can barely attest to my will

lo and behold an irony

The figment unveils verity

And it is oh so...

Oh so cold...

It never ends

It never ends

Chained to you

Lost to you

Pained by you

It never ends

A lock and key

The spell was a vice

Vehicle of wisdom

Will I see it clearly?

Wake from a stupor

And stupid illusions

Soon it will reveal to me

That all is not what seems to be

If I am not drowned

In the cold truth

To which I am privy

And it is oh so...

Oh so cold...

It never ends

It never ends

Chained to you

Lost to you

Pained by you

It never ends

Where does the road lead?

Will I heal or will I bleed?

It never ends

I simply account for it all

For when I take a fall

I've given you every

Chance to see it through

And it has stricken me

If you feel pain

I feel it in attrition

Blurring my vision

Naiveté is not who I am

But I am just a man

And it is oh so...

Oh so cold...

It never ends

It never ends

Where does the road lead?

Will I heal or will I bleed?

It never ends

Life is Selfishness

"A living thing seeks above all to discharge its strength — life itself is will to power. Nothing else matters." - Friedrich Nietzsche

Every single thing we do is an extension of our selfishness, our will to survive and to gain. To survive is to gain, you must gain whatever you, the individual, feels is necessary. In our "moral" society, instead of primitive means of exerting our strength onto others and our environment (such as violence), we use what Neitzsche calls disguised forms of exerting our power. Altruism and sympathy are just two examples of our exertion manifestation in our "morally correct" society. Each one of these traits is really one's means of gaining praise or whatever other positive results for its ultimate benefit; because a being cannot benefit when its environment or its peers work against it's potential to gain.

We are completely incapable of practicing ideas that actually contradict selfishness, such as de facto Communism, Altruism, and other similar ideas. For a society to truly work as a communist governing system, each and every individual would need to put the needs and health of its peers above its own completely. Altruism is similar, but it is not an idea centered around governance; rather, it is one's apparent actions that benefit the needs and health of others at the behest of the "altruistic" individual. Alas, these are inalienably impossible ideas to make concrete in human affairs; we are truly selfish beings, out for our own needs before any others' needs. We share this with all other living organisms on the planet.

Hence, reproduction is another exertion of our selfishness. Selfishness is the will to survive, for if one is not selfish, they cannot see to it to survive another day. The mother's will to protect her young, for instance, is an exertion of their power; for her young is the receiving end of the exertion of her strength, and her young perpetuates the cycle of selfishness to which they contributed. Religious systems are also an extension of our will to power, as for one example with regards to religion, an individual or camaraderie of individuals exert their power over those who they control.

This logic stands firm, and provides a stark look at rebellion, or insurrection as it is properly termed, as even this collective action on part of at least one individual being is not immune to the cold truth of the cycle of life. It is in essence a means for at least one individual's quest to exert his or her strength over others for it's own gain. This is evident in the result of the French Revolution, where after the most powerful individual in France was relinquished of its strength, other individuals simply took on the power that was previously held and frowned upon by the collective peers of the country.

However, one cannot gain from exertion of power if they do not hold the positive reactions of their peers and/or the proper adaptation to its organic environment; as factors from either of these umbrella groups of factors can work against the individual's ultimate need for the assurance of it's own survival. In summary, each and every being must do everything it can for the sake of its own survival, as that is the most important protocol that runs in every single organism that has ever lived, and will ever live, in nature.

The Promised Land

Gone is the day in which we all live
And time is beckoning but our hearts are set
In our dreams is where we all lift
Our spirits seem to be all that we need

All of our pain seems to fade away
Marks of sin break our hearts no more
Brothers and sisters are lost in dismay
And I depend on your love in defense

Trust in me and I will hold your hand
As I shape us the promised land
Trust in me and I will kiss your hand
And the world will embrace our strand

A ghost in the wind leaves me comforted
As a fiery sky descends upon all man
Before time began we would mourn for the dead
Yet a timeless peace seems to be all I need

What is our link to the foreign lands
See all we can see before it's all gone
Grasp your boundless dreams in demand
Our spirits seem to be all that we need

Trust in me and I will hold your hand
As I shape us the promised land
Trust in me and I will kiss your hand
And the world will embrace our strand

Take it to my Grave

Burning my pages!
And you're sadistic!
My birthright is disgraced
By your burning malice!

Twist my fall from death
As it is me you defile!
A sick vile agenda
Which you seek to fulfill

At the behest of me
And my loved ones
Whom you forsake with
Brazen persistence

Burning my pages!

Fuck my name
Grim mistake
Raped in vain
Grim mistake!

Burning my pages!

Cowardice you illustrate
A bias against my name
I harbored no scorn
Yet you are my thorn!

Damned in death
Far in debt

Cowardice you illustrate
A bias against my name
I harbored no scorn
Yet you are my thorn!

Fuck my name
Grim mistake
Raped in vain
Grim mistake!

Burning my pages!

Burning my pages!

The Idea of a Utopia is merely a Pipe Dream (POLL)

You may know of people who, for whatever reason, indulge in fantasies of peace among mankind. You know, a Utopia, where everyone gets along, and there are no clashes of ideas or beliefs or interests because, somehow, there are no separate ideas, beliefs or interests. Perhaps it's different from that; perhaps it's because ideas, beliefs, or interests don't clash with one another. But there's one problem with that...

That will never fucking happen.

Where is the logic in this pipe-dream think-tank? Sure, it's peachy and people don't tend to like conflict (at least in their active consciousness that they mostly control), but people have conflicted with each other ever since the birth of man. Conflict is part of survival. It's in nature. You and I, and every organism on this planet, is in a conflict to survive. It's perpetual. And this "conflict" comes in many, many forms. We think we're the most conflict-ridden creatures on the planet but that's only because we understand ourselves the most. But I digress.

The point of this post is not to be some philosophically tinged rant, but to ask you, my reader, what you think of this fucked up, rather boring as hell idea that humans can somehow coexist peacefully.

Remember, we don't all think alike. Sure, since we're a social creature (which is a weakness in some cases, and a strength in others), we mostly conform to a group-mind; but we're never truly like someone else. The physical and mental connections in our cognitive processor, or our "brains", are never the same because of countless factors, and as long as those countless factors continue to affect us, we'll never be the same. And I'm glad for that. For example, I don't want anything to do with organized religion. I find the shit to be reprehensible because it, for the most part, is against individual thought and action. No, Christianity doesn't care for YOUR fulfillment in life, because it is about governing how you live your life, and pleasing some unexplainable, unprovable god thing in the sky somewhere that apparently created everything in the universe (but somehow fucks up with our anatomy, as a tiny example, in many, many ways).

So here's the poll question:

Would you truly relish the idea that humans can coexist peacefully, without any conflict in whatever form amongst one another, and make it last?

Here are your options ladies 'n' gentlemen:

1) Yes, I in fact believe in this idea that all humans, present and future, can coexist amongst each other peacefully and without any further conflict.

2) I think it is possible (REQUIRES THOUGHTFUL EXPLANATION)

3) No, I don't see it happening any time soon -OR- No, I know about human nature, and the nature of everything that lives on this ever-changing blue-green rock, and how conflict has always, and will always be necessary for survival.

Please respond by comment. I'd really like to know how many of you believe in this (IMHATOO) silly idea, are not sure about it, or are in fact in opposition to this idea.

Basking in Adrenaline Bliss

I shatter the skies with my all

Only dreams are made of this

And as the air caters to my fall

I bask in adrenaline bliss

My hopeful tears begin to fall

Which I do not sorely miss

All my good life on this blue-green ball

Is a gift I shall surely kiss

A passageway has opened

Into a comforting blue blanket

Then this wondrous peace ends

As the lively sun sets

And in my mind I amend

With each chance I get

When I can bask in adrenaline bliss

And my hopeful tears begin to fall

I'm All Alone

It's just me & me

And I'm all alone

There's someplace I must be

And I'm not going

There's nothing that you'll find

In my mess of a life

Only pain and tears

Bundled up through all these years

I know that you dream and

I'm so sorry

But nothing I can be or do

Will end this sad story

In my life it's hard to find

A way to end this inner strife

Just leave me to rot here

I'm already wallowing in fear

It seeps through me

And what I used to be

Is hidden beneath

A sheet of utter loathing

I've set up a smoke screen

It's nothing you've not already seen

And all the love you've felt

Seems to have died and welt...

Away

Leave Me Alone

Dreams Are Gone

It's just me & me

And I'm all alone

I'm still being me

And I'm all alone

I've killed it for me

And I'm all alone

I just want to end this dream

But I'm all alone
