Foetus Noose - Benediction

Cloying blackness, within the womb, unwanted child’s fleshly tomb

Umbilicus, a weaved choke, hung in time, frail neck is broke

Aborted form’s placenta shroud, writhe in untold fear

Suffer not this child to live, awash in bitter tears

Eternally they’re cast in a sea of feculence

Sound the flatline knell, bloodied noose, a cold embrace

Salted out of life’s chance, lost souls disarrayed

What never was, can never be, grotesques we betrayed

Mortal remains.

Now just burning embers

It cuts both ways, for all those dismembered

Carbonized by fire, burning flames of hate

Guilty in a blinkered court, destruction, child’s play

Beaten derewcts on the brink of death, there’s no requiem

Nothingness is what remains, no chance to live again
