The Birth of King Contradictus-Invictus.

which shall surely Damn us All.)
____________________

T'was a Mad Mad Day
On The Night of June,
that I (in my Hypocrisy)
Barked like a Cat At
The Dead Dead Moon.

(which brought New
Dying Life to Me.)

And Love frowned
Hatefully with a Smile
that melted The Burning
Hearts of All Demonic
Angels who flew (from
The Underworld) to See..

The Birth of Contradictus
Invictus. (Their Cherished
King.)

"He is Damned" said Those
Damnable Critics who (to
Any True Artist) are Lambs
best suited to Be Fed to
Wandering Souls Departed.

"but..yes he's Damn Good
Too!"

(for one so Fully Empty
Hearted..and Crazier Than
You.)

There were Gods in Those
Dark Days..who Did Similarly
Godly Things that All Good
Gods Thus Darkly Do.

And I (in further Hypocrisy)
was The Fortunately Unfortunate
Fiend Blessedly Cursed to
Be Their Scribe.

(and record my Impressions
From A Noon-Day Moon.)

"He is God" The Heathenly
Heathens (who grind the Bones
Of Spirits into Bread)  Said..
Not-Half-So-Merrily.

"But he should Have Been
The Devil Instead!"

(and Brought New-Dying-
Life to Me.)
