Black water flowing
c putrid stench arises
Past the bloody fray
Souls frozen in silence

Time moves differently here
In a black cascade
Helplessly pulled asunder
Into the undertow of my hate

My body thrashes about
But it just won't budge
I'm writhing in stone
With the rest of the judged

clive within a dream
This body writhes in stone
Eternally unwaking
Together but so alone

Bitter and forlorn
Conscious, stuck in slumber
Larynx dried and torn
Forms painted in umber

I feel the wrath
The utter frustration
Helpless discomfort
c lucid damnation

The others watching
Eyes fixate on me
Rage petrified in rock
Preserving the obscene

My body thrashes about
But it just won't budge
I'm writhing in stone
With the rest of the judged
My sins expunged

clive within a dream
This body writhes in stone
Eternally unwaking
Together but so alone

Bitter and forlorn
Conscious, stuck in slumber
Larynx dried and torn
Forms painted in umber
