Lamentations of a Fallen Angel - A Dramatic Fragment
Delirium! I am cast down.
Cannot the damning fires of hell be quenched?
The raging flames torment my winged breast
And O the heat infects me with it's pain.
Behold the testimony to an unjust God,
Jehovah's mercy absent unto me
For here I stand condemned of heinous crimes
And swiftly judged unclean eternally.
My Gehenna,
My fiery plateau,
My kingdom of unremitting hate
Wage war upon the Heavenly Host,
And those that would desire him most.
