Painkillers Before A Wax

Amenophi

Amenophi is Dead

___

I

dance, the dervishes

Islamic Mysticism

Vortex White.

The procession glide along the city of Thebes

The Nile,

desert silence.

Dead

Amenophi, third,

is Dead.

Shout the song of a funeral

Litany

Panoramas pyramids

Temples

And beyond the sea

Ships and smell of salt.

Time crumpled

Spaceship

satellites and colonies.

Book of the Dead

Hieroglyphics

Statue properties

Infinite Divinity

Caravella adrift

War elephants

E automata

clash of iron

and blood on the pavement

asphalt slab

twisted bones.

Amenophi and 'dead.

Viva Amenophi.

funeral.

Amenophi died

Fanfare sand

Choir mud

Western Nile

and white linen

Everywhere.

There,

a step just beyond

The parade

Wife young brothers who love

Subjects slaves

Humanity

E Dei.

the Son who is the son of the Sun

the Amon

The Only Son to be the Apostate

cries Amenophi

The Glorious.

Pharaoh died

Hear that?

Now we are celebrating the rite

Worship

Rite Liturgy of the living God

Dying

lives forever

Dies

Lives

Lord.

Body of a God

Funeral slips past

The Nile listens to the song

Notes

music written

Now

in this time.

Scrolls Funeral

In the dust of a desert of ruins

And now I feel:

Drums

Wind

Archi

Voices of a Dead Language

Now.

III

Amenophi is Dead.

Viva Amenophi.

And the funeral goes

A vague echo

Placide waves and sparse boats

Riverside dense

that goes to sea

Huge and hot

barbarian peoples

Indifferent

of the unborn

Everything is slowly silence

Mutes the real

The sand stops on its way

No new form dunes

No mirage in the hot yellow.

Without horizon

Timeless Moment

At all times

Everywhere

Now

Amenophi is Dead

And the grim procession

addition my eyes

bow my head

observe the asphalt

breathe the stench of a factory far

Chemistry

A glow in the sky

Explosion

L ' nth

Satellites

War in the clouds

Republics and theocracies

Colonies

Powers and anarchy.

I do not care

Amenophi is Dead.

And now I no longer see

Eternal

His Black Funeral

Parade.
