for e. p.
pierce your heretic's arrows into my silver body
and i do not care.
for i am made of Divinity herself, and children of Divinity
are terrifying creatures of twisted Morality.
i stalk the fervent night
and root my fingers into the ugly lethality of pride;
the halo of a sin mistaken for righteousness.
i will undo the golden sceptre of Time
and her archaic, twisting ways of deception.
and my Mother will call to me,
sheathed and laced in her deviance and her disguise;
that which she calls Precedent.
the most dangerous of them all.
and Fear, entrenched in gold lies and hollow assurances
will be my Weapon.
that which i do not have by Precedent i will stake
with Morality and the promise of Divinity.
for my Mother is with me.
she will allow for nothing less than Purity.
because i am the Legitimate.
enlighten me, heretic.
tell me of your stories and your tales;
how Time turns and how Fear rules.
fleeting silhouettes of History flickering in and out
of the books.
i write Precedent
for i am Divine.
