In the belt of Orion 

is a particular giant

Taller than the Everest

clouding up my headspace

We’ve all been here before

Beggin for change

And I’m still unsure

of his phases

Charming if nothing 

He’s ultraviolet 

 

There’s a careful calm 

in knowing nothing

It’s the only way

I’ll get to you

 

In this delicate hour that

you’ve crushed and devoured

Does it know my intention?

for final ascension 

Now, keep a straight face

It never was a game

I’m just a dot 

in his formation

And I understand now

why Taurus shunned him

 

There’s a silent charm 

In these glitter highways

they’re the only way

to run from you

 

I could rise like a pharaoh

from the still of the gallows

But I cling to the poison

Just to let all the noise in

and hide behind the face

Maybe i’ll escape

But i’m pleasured by his gazes

Stopping at nothing

to kill the violence

 

Save your own demise

from the stars half your size 

you have bruised

Orion …
