The bullets rattled in my hand like bones in need of reading
I threw them in the chambers while he lay there broken, bleeding
His head it split from crown to lip - the rounds went one by one
I left his body for the crows and threw away the gun
I kicked the bedroom door down and I found her lying there
Decked in jewels and bangles with a serpent in her hair
She was mine by law, not love - I stormed to the divan
Took her by the throat and said "You'll make of me a man"
But oh, the truth of ages will reveal itself too late
Now murder's changed to patricide and incest's made of rape
My children, creatures, bastard I - I cannot see, I hope to die
The chariots colliding under weight of word and wicked lie
And the snakes are in the fist again
And the blood is on the hands again
And the wolf is at the breast again
The wolf is at the breast again
And the heel is held above again
And the babe is armor-clad again
And the kings are on their way again
The kings are on their way again
And the stars are drawn in thirds again
And the earth is spitting graves again
And the horn is being blown again
The horn is being blown again
And I have only you.

I was away when you wrote this and commented without being able to give it proper attention.
I wasn't aware then just how fucking awesome this is.

please don't be disappointed in me.. I REALLY wanted to like it...but it was B I T T E R & unforgiving...and...the toast BEGGED me to apologize for subjecting it o such a travesty..so I am.
I really wanted to like it..I did.
So, I just got filafel after drinking KILKENNY all night, and I'm in search of Advil, but all I found was this internet cafe..so..I'm off again. I suspect I'll end up in Temple Bar Hotel with no Advil...ugh..tired of typing..what's that? my filafel's getting cold?
When you feel awful
eat filafel
Amd you'll feel ALL FULL...
gotta go..ugh..

I took Doré's "Enigma" - which involves the Sphinx - as a springboard to write about Oedipus coming to grips with his fate.
Stupid.

+2 for the William Blake reference
-------
one of my faves....dude, do you think you could try some Walt Whitman-stylee?
I'm not sure how well it would go over here on Uber though - a lot of gheyness and nature would be involved. But hey, if any one can pull it off, it would be you, brotha...

Here are two that I posted way, way, way back in September 2005 when I was just a youngin':

I think you mean something a bit more serious, though. Maybe if I find a good nature painting I'll try doing something a bit Whitmanish.

how do you read bones?
---
You throw bones - typically animal bones - and attempt to interpret the symbols or images that the scattered bones create or suggest.
However, and this is the most important part, you must make sure that your oversized rodent-like head doesn't block the sunlight or whatever artificial source of illumination is available. It's hard enough to work out a prophecy when it's bright out, trying it in the darkness is just folly.
