O, Why hath god forsaken me, Tis but dust in thy wind

I recommend this piece be read to the beat of a cowbell.



When will ye olde fair be free
Of days likened to Beelzebub’s tea
Is it but a pittance?
Is it but a tear?
Twould seem hate is but whim
And starlight ever dim
So close now is the oppressor grim

Why must years be passing rain,
Chance like yonder train?
Are fables your tightrope, myths your dare?
Break chance forthwith, balance without care
Now tender thy flock to see that in stock
But forever unseen is that which is green
There is no truth more true, they say with great sigh
But in truth and lie there is that blatant tie

Seize fate, seize hate, seize that with fading light
Take sin, take angst, take temptation laced with plight
Carry it now to depths of jumbled mind
There lay the answer, and inner peace you may find

Like diamonds in your hand is that sound in your ear
Merely data making clatter and a solitary tear
A tear from Metallica, opposers of free sound
Garter your blessings and net crimes abound
Shield your vitals from the ominous Krauk
Who seek retribution for these words on Metalk
Can’t find words that rhyme with Krauk
Malk, yalk, qualk, embalk
So here end this tale of sight and sound
I wish this poem was worth one pound
