Song of my Dark self

by Max Bindi


I have a thousand faces
and only one mask
unearthly common places
no black moon to ask
but one more ghost train to miss
no phantom time to lose
I follow my cursed bliss
like a new monster on the loose
and I am long past caring
what my own demons say
I lost my bearings
in the remains of judgement day
one foot in Hell's door
one foot in the shallow grave
I trudge along this spectral shore
waiting for the last Death wave.
