Over a dread, over a rot
I've been laughing at God,
Streaming angry intangible tears.
I was burning inside
With despair and pride,
Torn apart by the shadowy fears.

Struck my heart, lightning bolt,
Crush my soul, smash my world,
Set my poems and music on fire!
Give me wings, thunderstorm,
Raise me high, change my form
Into brilliance, pain and desire!
