Upon Splintered Wood 4-8

2007

Those sultry wounds impart such vital truth

Skin whipped, torn, tortured and mutilated

Death setting grace upon my naïve youth



Of human kind these actions seem uncouth

Justice unknown to those who desecrated

Those sultry wounds impart such vital truth



Now scattering the last of all untruth

This resurrection lights what is created

Death setting grace upon my naïve youth



Such a death in particular selcouth

One who slays roams free, but conjugated

Those sultry wounds impart such vital truth



Upon my face these simple streaks of ruth

While comprehending mystifying fated

Death setting grace upon my naïve youth



And now for You, master engastrimuth

Within this puppet Your words restated

Those sultry wounds impart such vital truth

Death setting grace upon my naïve youth
