_{besos brujos que me matan.

moloch is going to eat me alive. i stayed
a night wrapped in that cold, and i knew
moloch would devour my soul in three years time.

karasu told me once, i see you
tangled up in your sinning tree
waiting for an honest death to
claim you, counting every second
as they tick away on the clock
tower across town. i see you
hiding in your shadows and the
earth has deserted you now.

-

there is no going back child,
once the black dragon pulls
you under there is no return.

i am clutching sand tight between my
twigfingers, and the grains escape
me like my reasons for waking each
morning and fighting forwards to a
goal i have already lost sight of. i feel
i am charging full force, expending all
my energy on a journey that ultimately
will make no difference at all to my fate.

-

karasu, i can never leave a mark more
permanent than myself, and i am tired
of waiting for him. no matter how many
red moons pass over this city, i cannot
push myself any further for something i
will never see. soon, i will be leaving,
and moloch will become your demon to
consume or defeat. my earth has failed me,
each blade of grass i fall back on is slicing,
and you told me from day one that victory
cannot be truly tasted until we have learned
to accept our losses.
my search will end in the quiet of 3:22,
when i will sleep forever in the eye of the storm.}
