His Gentle Whisper – Promote Yourself
“Oath” – Promote Yourself
Dead leaves hang like dead skin, – Promote Yourself
Dead leaves hang like dead skin,
Lifeless and crippled.
Bodies swaying in the wind
Skin so brittle.
Once vibrant green leaves
Smothered by a rusty color.
Bodies weakened by disease,
Distorted out of structure.
Clinging to those who‘re doing fine,
Circumstance far from parallel,
Forced to look on with broken spine
Floating in the air but in a cell.
That is Purgatory; the place between life and death.
Trapped in the world, undead and dull as death.

One day Death will come – Promote Yourself
One day Death will come
She’ll lead me by the hand
Across the threshold to the Never
And in her light I’ll stand.
Do not mourn my passing
For She must come to us
Whether we rot from cancer
Or are struck down by the bus.
I know not how I’ll pass
That is the price of living
Knowing that what lives must die
For She is unforgiving.
I hope you’ll light a candle
Remember me once in a while
I have loved, and been loved.
I can greet her with a smile
