“It’s a heaviness of ache than paralyzes me with this infernus warning. Below my eyes, I’m awaiting my imminent gnashing of teeth. Forbidden waters, my being needs no cleansing. Dead azure sky, God is unable to be seen. Heaven’s plague, All I see is deaf devotion. The man of stone, Religion was conceived by the infirmity of humanity. It’s all an apparition that arises from the root of decayed light. Alone -- for we are indeed the seed of nothingness.”
