I Decree

My malaise

Entombed deep in my viscera

The omentum

Holding it captive

Chained

To its lacy net

Unable to break free

Oh, there was a time

Its leaky affliction

Escaped

Its formidable bonds

And a growl rooted in anger

Asphyxiated in my soul

Triumphantly leaped

A roar of unmeasurable magnitude

Barreled into space

The gods willingly devoured my rage

Took gleeful delight

And granted an ache

That blazed through

The midnight blackness

The music twinkling

Lovingly in my ears

As the stars burst

Through my fears

With the rising of the sun

I was free

But time again will surely show

When passions shall overcome

And please the gods once more

Their burning child shall glow

I decree
