Guised in Dusk

Was it all a masquerade?

Underneath innocence, charms of a fallen angel

Behind the silver screen,

Wiry fingers stained with acoustic rust


But I shiver.

Arduous labor -- life's but one essence,

Godhead joined to a harlot

Soul arrested alongside a black heart.


Amidst the saints' weeping, a silent prayer ring.

Push aside the betrayals and fill with charity

Then when the autumn nocturne sets, goodnight rock.
