INVENIAM VIAM AUT FACIUM

( I shall either find a way or make one )





This, your locked cage

Chained to the sea bed

Let the sea fill your lungs

Drown your encaged howls

Close your snapping jaws

Suffocate your souls





This, your chosen path

Where parents devour offspring

And those remain

Follow Death’s dripping scent,

To those decaying bones,

What bore us, taught us

Under the full moon





Your baying deafens me,

Your wrath, aggression, hate

Your maliceous need, intent

To destroy,

Every living breath..

Your jealousy, envy

That kills,

Eats the flesh

Bleeds the soul dry





Oh Fenrir,

What twisted mind

What grotesque howls

At the molestation

Of a child,

She wolf

Your sibling,

What worship to Deimos

Your God, Supreme Being





I fought for breath of life

From your darkness, tyranny, rage

Sought a different way

Silently watched,

Walk away,

Breathe now,

Light
