Perdition

Once, twice
I begged for death
maligned by serpentine fires.
We brushed tales only
to extinct our hearts
conformed drinking
the exiliar of life.

Oracle cards
once lied to me.
I learned to entomb them
beneath the earth.
I called Dymphna
to heal my wounds
yet she plagued
me with the
ignorant hail.

My faith
became banished,
ruled by Thor.
And once, maybe twice,
I begged for death
The holy spirit,
evaporated my senses
dragging me in
to a cave of confessions.

Once, twice
I asked forgiveness.
Although I was told
to beg for death.
"Child, your far too gone,
to understand heaven"
without our father
your soul shall
not rest.
