The throne of thorns is coming
spun of sun and silk
castrating Neptune's bones
from breeding blood and filth

All my forgotten names
ancient serpents in my soul
perforated prophecies
an abortion lost in utero

Invoking all your saints
a poetic malady
blinded by the Fate's
and their myopic prophecy

A centaur's snare of chaos
the Iliad engulfing me
drunk on the blood of Mars
now war is all I see

Launching my confession
a full frontal assault
of grandiose repentance
freeing me from fault

Suffering in soulful screams
Reality a lucid dream

Clawing at my jaw
this labyrinth of lies
hunting down the minotaur
a dragon in disguise

Lathered in her web
Medusa's bearing down
in paralytic stone
my tongue comes unwound

Milking the womb of madness
a masochistic reverie
my soul committed suicide
now my mind is haunting me

*I should have probably included this warning after my first submission, but my poetry is a raw reflection of stereotypes and hypocrisy, with a prevalent religious undertone. It's angry and paradoxical, I hope no one's offended.*
