The Ascend (Into Madness)
Betle ,Basil, beetle drones
Light upon me dawns!
Wei la la lea,
There is nothing to fear!
Crows with sharp teeth,
Nightmares unable to breathe!
Stillness floats supine
Jagged rocks carving the back
The murky silence oozes out
Songs of mynas heart pine
Bubbles that swallow never crack
Life stands to the corner and pout!
Wei la la lea,
There is nothing here!
Distant drones of helicopters,
Hearse on air chauffers!
Smoke from brain broke
Thoughts spilled on the sudden brake!
Ascend into the madness,
Chaos with a finesse!
The rivelut flows
North wind blows,
Springs carries me away!
