1.
The Rhine was red with humane blood, The Danube roll'd a purple tide, On the Euphrates Satan stood And over Asia stretch'd his pride. He wither'd up sweet Zion's Hill From every Nation of the Earth; He wither'd up Jerusalem's Gates And in a dark Land gave her birth. He wither'd up the Human Form By laws of sacrifice for sin, Till it became a Mortal Worm, But O! translucent all within. Spectre of Albion! warlike Fiend! In clouds of blood and ruin roll'd, I here reclaim thee as my own, My Selfhood! Satan! arm'd in gold. (William Blake)

War sublimates the lycanthropic death-wave Like dream sublimates unavowable desire Allowing something to remain asleep Undoing a war in a poem The nightmare of something peeled back Disintegration of flesh from a skull Movement of violent disillusion Sighing among the shadows of autumnal ashes Inhibiting a mournful dream-image The thorny wilderness girdles the city From bloody steps the moon hunts Multiplicity of wolves, a rupture Blood, the moon, and women Coagulated by an intense menstrual seism Shattering the illusion of dissolution And death

Bones contort, mind unfolds Brainless flesh nothing knows Corpulent confinement Degrading away in silence Flesh unfolds, brain explodes Senseless mind nothing knows Spiritual penitentiary Only existing in memory Fragmented consciousness Existential instability Tear away all your flesh Symbol of infirmity Pools of blood gathering Spirit and teeth testing me Ouroboros swallowing Combining everything Spirit and teeth Like vampires bleed Mouths open, you and me Pain and bliss, eternity Spirit and teeth Indulge me Secrets of humanity Struggle and peace, infinity Darkness of space, cosmic seas Swirling chaos, eternal beasts Drift amist voids and blackness Nourish your flesh in absence The black stars forever shining Eternity keeps on grinding Sailing the endless sea On a ship of spirit and teeth Spirit and teeth and spirit and teeth… [Gibberish]
