Then Kill Cæsar - Current 93

I was awake dreaming of new dystopias to run to

And hide within

And new faces to wear

And new bodies to inhabit

And new lies to guzzle

And how I loved the moon

And its sheet of seeds

The moon tiding in your body

The smell of your blood breathing

And its taste in the sea

In the South shining my feet

Till it seemed as if they were made with dew

There’s pearls of huge beauty in the sunset

Moontime for lying heads

Their snakefaces

Have burrowed into this world

From Har Megiddo Time

Whilst kissing the bronze King

Whilst kissing the copper King

Whilst kissing the silver King

Whilst kissing the golden King

Give into Mammon

And then kill Caesar cannot come

Both brothers have sodomized

The given sky

Then Kill Caesar

Oh Kill Caesar

Black Ships eat skies

And pumpkin pies

And cross their hearts

And so carry on

And cannot die

And devour the sky

So then kill Caesar

Then kill Caesar

Tarmac angels

Burst into the seafoam

The end sees blood

It’s buzzing like flies

And skipping-tops clown

A rich harvest of berries

Planetary Israel

Mother and Father

Blue and gold

Beauty Israel

But then kill Caesar

Then kill Caesar

The sunset comes

And then becomes

A million sunrises

Shuddering at once

But then kill Caesar

Black Ships invade the Realm

Then kill Caesar

Then kill Caesar

Then kill Caesar

Then kill Caesar
