cadence - August 31st, 2024

The devil bathes in whitest lies
The purest evil dares to go
A painless Papal palate cleanser
Drowns the taste of truth untold

“Mama tells me I’m a sinner.”
Let her tell you all she wants. 
Ivory venom, canines dripping,
Cigarette teeth and rotting tongue

Heaven’s creeks don’t know the power
Hell’s got rivers, oil slicks
He’s hiding oceans from God’s vantage
Lest leviathans peek their heads

Lie flows freer than human amber, 
It’s got that glimmer, good-intent glamour
We’ll pretend mundanity justifies it
We dress it, shoot one back for good measure

Skeletons drink with empty stomachs, 
Acid rain beneath the bones
Tip one backward, Hell’s own upward,
Rain like ash and pumice stone

The Devil’s rain is whitest lies,
Feeds the masses’ laving mouths
I pray it feeds the crimson ivies
That reach our throats and choke the sounds
