...Topical Battle Verse

The Stasis Manifesto

I came into existence at the moment of creation
When “God” was just an infant I was already ancient
I wrote the ‘The Book of Life’ and penned your name on its pages
Then waited for the day I’d erase and replace it
Sometimes it took forever, but time was never wasted
For patience is a virtue, and I’m forever ageless
Around every corner, ahead of every step, a calculated killer
I’m the best at playing chess. I’ve never been defeated
Though some try to cheat me, but never have they won
Adultery’s beneath me. You're married to your fate
And Destiny’s my daughter; conceptually I’m akin
To an omnipresent father. An ever watchful eye.
The hawk in the sky. The spider on the web.
You’re caught in the twine. Your life is just a thread
In my lofty design. I’m what lost creatures find
At the end of every road. The truth in the lie
That refuses to erode. I’m like music to the soul
When I lull you to sleep. “For Whom the Bell Tolls”
Is the song that I sing, and a poem you may read
As I reap your final breath. I’m the devil in a dress.
The angel in a shroud. The great equalizer
Who seldom is announced, tho I'm crouched in the shadows
Of every execution, and carry out my duty
Without arrogance or hubris. The elegance of death.
The beauty in decay. Your funeral’s a tribute
For which you shall repay the favor that I gave
When I freed you from the chains of misery and pain
"To live is to suffer"."To die is to gain".
Delivered you from grief...was never given thanks
Put an end to disease...when medication waned
Claimed the presidents and chiefs, the slaves and the saints
For rank is unimportant to the vacancy of graves
It’s all make believe that’s created out of fear
The agency of ego that binds you to this sphere
The cycle of rebirth: death after death.
Reincarnation: test after test. It’s all so exhausting
You should come and take a rest. Please step into the void
To finally coalesce with the concept of peace.
A primeval thesis. Where everything is whole.
The antimatter sequence. Encoded in the soul.
The black hole's secret ∼eternal ebb and flow∼
The egg or the chicken? Here's what you need to know
Neither came first they both existed after me
As I created them together to complete this masterpiece
The Alpha and Omega. The seed and the tree.
The symphony of life. It all leads to me.
The final destination, where all things meet.
Welcome to the End, where all things cease.
