Time began
Time ended
The singing harolds of the angels called him into existence
How he bowed
Cutting his lips on barbed wire that clamped his mouth
If he could not speak he could not cast his magic
And so
Time began again
This time without the magic man
And it was good
For a while
Except this new world this new....angel singing their praise into tne new universe something was missing
The magic was missing
And the magic man grinned his cheeks swolen shut so tight around the wire his skin now curled and grew around it
They had caught a god
The thing about gods is that they had a tendencey to live on
Please
The new universe begged
We need magic
The angle signing it to the old where only the magic man and his many faces lived
"I appear now only in your dreams that is where i live in this dark new world" he thought
"Please" the new universe begged
"We are dyeing. Come. Feast."
The magic man smiled. Breaking rhe skin and wire that binded his jaw
"I agree" he said
That first night he feasted on the souls of an entire world
Watching their terror as he ate
And thats how the magic came to us
