What do you mean



What do you mean
When you say
He wasted his life?

He lived as he wanted,
He did good things and was
A good man

What do you mean
When you say his loss was a tragedy?

What do you mean when you say He?

Who was this man?
This Saintly, stubborn ass
Who wouldn’t listen to the people who loved him?

What do you mean 
When he had a problem?


What does that problem entail?
Do I share his problem?

Am I He?


I am not he.

I am not he,
Yet I seem to be laying in his casket.



He who loves god more than most is he known as Satan

The hero is
He

Fallen from Grace
Down to the world below
Down here
Bathed by the brilliant Sun

The Beauty of man
Damned by knowledge of sin
And the sin of Knowledge

Yet the persistence of love and devotion
Damns the Hero
He
The king of nothingness 

The purist love unrequited

Without the reward of heaven
He loves

Down to the world below
He remains
Fallen from grace

In the brilliant sun
The brilliant son
Damned by the knowledge of man

In the perseverance of love
Becomes the hero
Without the reward of heaven
Sugar for wine


I give you sugar...
For wine

It will turn.
It will become wine,
and it will be sweet.
Intoxicating wine.
But my patience for the wine
is less than my love for it’s sweet release.
So I give you sugar for wine,
in return for the wine you have so steadfastly cultivated.

Please sir
I give you sugar for wine?
