Throne of Shadows

7 Apr 2021 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

Lit once for the long-dead, a great flame casts Unctuous shadows that dance for the mad. They draw their weary sycophants in with Illusions of a world untouched by darkness. However, for all they claim to offer, Torment's truly these phantasms' award...

Fiat Tenebrae

24 Jan 2021 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

Burning flame in the mirror, darkness all around, You’re enclosed by the artifact of the past’s sense; Upheld by the sycophant’s sick word as profound; An ocean of sweet despair, mistaken for hope.   Looking into your reflection, a shadow grows, Juxt...

Abominable Reveal

19 Nov 2020 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

Worthless and still gestures, masquerading As prodigiously significant acts, Belie a tale woven of victimhood; Drown pity with wicked indignation.   Pleas to keep what, by nature's hand, would have Been consumed without remorse, fade into Guttural mo...

Dark Night

27 Oct 2020 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

  At the precipice of its expanse, Mankind seethes With decadent angst; obfuscates its eyesight with Pleasure, emotion, and sentimentality, While things as they stand crumble for iniquity.   By avarice and grandiose pride, blood stains their Hands; t...

The Cannibalistic Mother

20 Aug 2020 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

Like excrement exuding forth from the rear of an ass, The corpse of a dying culture regurgitates itself.   Cultivating catacombs of sycophantic cannibals, The repugnant mother holds an abominable feast.   Thrown upon its thrall’s plate is the past re...

The Fall

28 Jul 2020 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

  Haughty and full of gross disregard, Man ascended; Deconstructing his world with blind rationality; Coercing and bending others to achieve his ends; Interring himself in a tomb of living death.     A Passionless blaze fell from towers on high While...

The Shadow and His Mirror

14 Jul 2020 1 minute read 1 comment MatTehCat

Bleak Dawn: Mankind appears as a machine; His words, gestures, actions, formulaic; Their spontaneous manifestations, The sole light that draws my ennui forward.   His pathological tendencies, wrought With's greedy delusions, blinding him by The trap...

City of Man

7 Jul 2020 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

Motionless ocean, devoid of Life, No eye will ever see your limits; No shores or beaches will contain you; Your waters are darker than the void, For the depths of your being can’t be seen.   The city wall that constrains us all, Protecting us from th...

Truth, My Love

27 Jun 2020 1 minute read 0 comments MatTehCat

In you, I see all that could be. In you, I see rivalry. In you, I see desire. In you, I see the truth of all that's been shown through the fire.   But, oddly, it's not you, alone, that I love. It's not you, alone, that I hunger for. It's not you, alo...
