Lord of Oblivion

Grant Degnan

Blow up your mind into little pieces
and here I will take you to castle where there is no reason
liquid life dances upon the angelic faces
there is nothing but oblivion

out of reach are the hands of fate
Endless in the meadow – the bodies embrace
In the Fields of altered states

within your arms destiny’ holds your embrace
the unfolding of your journey has become
welcome to the Kingdom of Oblivion

Golden dreams shine upon the evanescence
Of your life…. I Slip into the setting sun
for I am The Lord of Oblivion

    Your mastery of the language is amazing. But....Oblivion? There are different definitions to the word (see below), which one are you referring to?
    I am not trying to be difficult, but trying to understand your poem correctly. Are we lost, extinct, or pardoned?

    oblivion
    [uh-bliv-ee-uh n]
    noun
    1.
    the state of being completely forgotten or unknown:
    a former movie star now in oblivion.
    2.
    the state of forgetting or of being oblivious :
    the oblivion of sleep.
    3.
    the act or process of dying out; complete annihilation or extinction:
    If we don't preserve their habitat, the entire species will pass into oblivion.
    4.
    Archaic. official disregard or overlooking of offenses; pardon; amnesty.
