The battle for the Soul is as	A
brutal as the battles of men	B
but sight of justice is the pleasure	C
of God alone	D

ARTHUR RIMBAUD	E

I	-
I used to dream Yes there once was a time	F
but they never seemed to come true So over the	G
taunting time that elapsed my reality became	H
violently twisted and composed of chaotic hues	I
	-
Sometimes I wish I could just sleep forever	C
beneath the dawn of escape and never awake	J
Yes never awake	J
	-
O how I wish I were a young lad again full	K
of hopes and dreams that someday when I would	E
be grown and the truth would be known But now	L
that I am I find the truth not at all very	M
kind	E
	-
So now my dreams have become reality and	E
my waking life but an illusion from the blind	E
eyes of a philosopher	C

II	-
FANT LUSION	L
	-
LIFE is indeed the big illusion	L
A dark and weary Dream	N
An infinite recycling circus	O
The ultimate gamble	P
	-
Throw down thy soul upon the Roulette	E
wheel of Chance and give her a	G
SPIN	L
	-
Round and round watch it go	Q
Where will it stop Only one knows	R
Tis judged by your actions committed	E
on a physical sphere By the power	C
of which spirit will you pray To	E
what voice will you adhere	S
How up if at all will you end	E
	-
Eternal celestial Paradise you could	E
hold freely in the palm of your hand OR	T
Darken your Soul wallowing about in the	G
ashes of Sin and a perpetual furnace of	U
tormenting agony you shall	V
win	L
	-
III	-
Be you a Wise Man or a Fool in the End	E
all will be Judged the same All that truly	M
matters is how you play the GAME	H
	-
IV	U
The hand that hurts can also become the	G
instrument that heals Like a razor blade	E
sealing an open wound with sterile precision	L
A master of undying compassion	L
	-
V	U
I'm slowly digging my grave with each Word	E
that I write And in the End I'll be buried	E
DEEP forever left to sleep yet awakened every	U
so often to be tortured by the Demons that have	U
possessed me during my life and will follow me	U
into Eternity	U
	-
VI	U
We must shelter the innocent from Life's	W
corrupting rain and temptation's beautiful	P
yet deadly web of inevitable destruction	L
	-
VII	U
Beneath the neon Sun the night explodes with	X
both passion and pain Couples in Love walk	Y
hand in hand past an alley sheltering a battered	E
woman and her child dressed in rags faces expressionless	Z
yet the agony easily slips through their not so tough	U
exterior Wall in the form of blood and tears	A2
	-
	-
VIII	U
Though lost you are in the blackest of nights I	U
will comfort thee and give you new Life Shed not	E
those tears and abandon your fears I will give you	E
Peace and for your Soul I shall grant Eternal Happiness	O
	-
Even as I sit on my throne by the blinded Fool	B2
I am convicted but in judgment the tables will	C2
be turned against them yet for those who believe	U
no more wounds upon thy Soul will be inflicted	E
	-
Peace for the pure	D2
Poverty for those who possess riches attempting	E2
to shield their insecurity and lack of Love with	X
tarnished glitter	C
	-
Watch the innocent myrmidons labor for their masters	F2
Blindly and slowly dying with each passing	E2
breath spent working beneath the Sun No Life to	E
lead is one spent in bondage but it's only physical	P
and just a fraction of the Time that you will someday	E
know	Q
	-
Fear not for ye shall receive your reward where	G2
Love is forever present Your master's fortune was	H2
built all in VAIN The wealth will bury their bodies	I2
and melt down their heart and Soul unless they rid	E
themselves of false fortune and gain Real tangible	P
glory through Love and repentance	J2
	-
Not so easy giving up All your Worldly goods and	E
knowledge to follow a Prophecy designed in another	C
Realm which solely exists because of your faith	K2
	-
Living on an Earthly kingdom whose gods are physical	P
and temptation is forever present most of these dwellers	F2
don't recognize the Laws of this Ethereal Doctrine	L
	-
But that's okay Become a martyr Die in Vain if	U
that's what they say but ye shall reap the harvest of	U
your suffering and never know Pain	L
	-
We're all just chasing after an illusion of Light	E
created by our unconscious minds but when the Truth	L2
is revealed your darkness will be shown Nevermore	T
to be sealed YOU HYPOCRITE	E
	-
IX	F2
Just in case your wondering about the poet's sanity	U
It seems to come and go from time to time but as of right	E
now everything's ALMOST fine HA	M2
	-
YES There will be no Reality for me as long as I have	U
the ability to create	E
	-
Now I begin to wonder	C
My thoughts haunt me as my mind begins to drift and	E
inquisitively ponder	C
	-
what is to become of me once I cross over into the	G
Afterlife The twisted Cross and horrors of Hell or	T
the Sacred tears of Heaven	L
	-
STOP	N2
	-
O piercing eyes and bleeding heart for one moment	E
please release me from the torturous knowledge of facts	F2
that so burden my soul with PAIN	L
	-
I wish to know nothing I will not leave my mark on	L
this world for I have never even existed physically	U
Only mentally in the nightmares that your easily	U
influenced mind possesses	F2
	-
Listen to me	U
	-
Insanity occurs when your mind can't accept	E
your true present reality so you unconsciously	U
create your own and try to live up to it	E
	-
Then you lose it HA HA HA Madness is so	F2
much fun	L
	-
But it's perfectly normal on this planet I have	U
seen many cases before but not as acute or perfected	E
as mine	L
	-
You see I've already recognized my illness and can	L
keep it in constant balance with reality Reality	U
What's that Switching over in an instant controlling	E2
the thoughts Directing them like kinetic energy being	E2
drawn forth from the vortex of the mind HA HA HA	M2
	-
Insanity The most painful disease known to Mankind	E
Neither Cancer nor AIDS can eat away at you as fierce	F2
as this cold Bitch can	L

Yes the Beast knows not mercy for he has never been	L
granted any himself Beaten electrocuted and locked	E
away to rot Yes I guess you could say his temper got	E
rather hot Lovely vengeance let's play games You're	D2
first and the last	E
	-
It's the disease of all poets philosophers and dreamers	F2
everywhere I still can't believe it's shunned and looked	E
down upon the way it is since it's shared the company of	U
so many great men and women throughout the ages	F2
	-
Once the mind goes it's over You'll never be truly	U
reborn or resurrected again Cast in Hell on Earth	O2
	-
Led blindly into the fire to be slowly consumed by human	L
hatred and mockery Lucifer rules Earth with a hungry	U
grin It's his monopoly He wants you to SIN	L
	-
X	F2
Earth is Satan's playground and people merely rides	F2
See how easily his powers can overcome you His	F2
transmissions through our own devices can unconsciously	U
hypnotize	F2
	-
If you make this place your kingdom in a similar domain	L
you will abide Please relinquish your grasp on this	F2
false haven for your Soul and ye shall finally know the	G
Truth Never again will it hide	E
	-
Blind eyes they mislead you How could you let your	T
faith be shattered by lies You give up Eternity for	T
fast salvation	L

Remember this Once your Soul falls never again	L
shall it rise	F2

XI	U
The farther I slip away from Reality's loose grasp	P2
much harder it becomes to answer the riddles I ask	Q2
In this World's oldest question I humbly asked WHY	U
It's for you to know my son AFTER YOU DIE	U
	-
	-
XII	U
In my agony I left behind a world torn and tortured	E
unkind Tears stream down my pale cheeks as I fly	U
high above the desolate ground on wings of sorrow with	X
a song that only the deaf can hear How unwise you	E
were to have wasted my gift to you I thought you would	E
have learned by now Once you fall the cold ground is	U
quite near	S
	-
XIII	U
Vices are nice when reality's no fun but take them	R2
away and you're on the RUN HA HA	M2

I know it's hard to fight a losing battle without a	G
shield but stand tall and give Life your best	E
Just unfurl your Flag of Denial toward Temptation and	E
your problems will surely yield	E
	-
XIV	U
Things or people you know nothing about cannot be	U
judged accordingly Ignorance of an issue means you	E
have no business inquiring in the first place So unless	U
you want to be killed by your own curiosity	U
Stay away unless your willing to play	E
	-
Dark is your mind kept lit only by your desire to	E
douse my raging inferno You say I lie Do you have	U
another version of the Truth	L2
	-
Everyone does Only when we try to prove the validity	U
of our truths do we have conflict Right and wrong become	S2
divided concepts in each of the debaters minds	U
	-
Your truth to them are just Lies and their Reality	U
to you are but Dreams Incomprehensible logic to minds	U
that are closed Knowledge is your only way to gain freedom	S2
	-

My immortality I will not deny Death claimed me in	L
the end only to sacrifice me later to the god of perpetual	P
incarnations	U
	-
XVI	U
Dreams cast out to the public unaware are but misty	U
vapors invisible logic not there Yes it's	U
sad but true too often we find our personal convictions	U
being overruled by the harsh truth set forth by temporary	U
gods unkind	E
	-
Please tell me why must I be cursed with this gift	E
of second sight Locked inside this fortress and tortured	E
by my phantasmal might	E

I don't know do you	E
