The material divine
More work, with a theme of "inevitability," perhaps.
These are the calling cards of the new gods
Black suits
Dark glasses
And a strong sense of wrongness
What pagan deities were sacrificed to the material divine?
When did burning churches
Finance the plans of progress?
This spiritual cost
This aesthetic loss
Was it dear to you and I?
On our last day together
Would you send your prayers for me?
I've made too many already
And when no one heard them I turned away
To the divinity I could give myself
Veins of fire
An unbearable lightness
Now I sleep without dreaming
And I cannot wake
Will you remember me?
ET, I will do your survey soon.
