follow god's rules for your whole life

and find yourself in a beautiful prison

break one rule,

and wake amidst fire and orange coal


is this not what tyrants do?

they rule


and he cannot even guarantee

whether he exists

whether his home of

gold mirrors and shards of light

stained glass and bones

exists


jules desires heaven yet hates god

if he is made of such power and amity

if he is watching over every living being

he is blind when it comes to julian


and so julian will be blind to him


eiris hates both heaven and god

life is fickle, minimal and trivial

she will hold the power to end it herself

she will not give up the reigns to her veins


she knows she will become one with

sparks and smoke, ice and frost

but even if she were offered a choice,

she would gladly choose hell
