Yesterday

by

Mat Lang

There is a world built
on the ashes of yesterday
nothing is infinite-
nothing is fertile-
today i disbelieve the past
and my present walks on
as i am numb
yesterday is gone

Statues

by

Mat Lang

organized religion
is god in a box
organized religion
is infinity on a pinhead
picture god,
iconize god,
make it human,
make it real,
we can see it.
we can touch it.
follow a painting,
follow a statue,
god is man
god is dead

Gov.

by

Mat Lang

the simple minded sect killed god
they persecuted his children
they molded it
they changed it's light
slaves of faith
they brainwashed you into
their god
you killed in the name of
their god
they sell you a soul
they sell you heart
they sell you eyes
how do you see their world?
maybe your ignorance
maybe your existance
is bliss
your brothers are your idols
your brothers are your god

Mirror

by

Mat Lang

My soul is a shipwreck
bound to an ancient shore
My love is dying ember
i feel no warmth
i am distant, i am cold
my mind is pure, my body
is rotten flesh
my eyes are windows
to the abyss of my soul
my mouth is a machine
programmed to tell lies
my hands are steel and iron
stiff and uncarressing
my life is empty
i breath no more
