Old Lies

Old Lies

A Poem by The Poet of Black Wings

Morality,

As told by

Old gods,

Old books,

Old men.


The law,

Their code is held

Up.

On.

High.

A place,

They push us to reach.

Forcing the climb,

Making us struggle

In order to attain that which they

Never had.


The ascent is

Impossible.

Without use of

Exaggeration,

That holds

True.

They know it full well,

Yet they still

Demand.

Punishing us,

When we

Inevitably,

Fall.


They

Trick us,

You realize.

Making us believe,

We are wrong.

We are filthy.

We are disgraceful beasts.

Fallacy of their

Doing,

Manipulates us.


We must cast it aside.

The law of gods,

The law of

Old.

Lies.

Must leave our thoughts.

Relieve ourselves of the

False good, and

Forget the constructed

Image of evils,

Crafted to bind you.

See the truth,

Un-know,

And be free.


Enter the void.
